With the festive season fast approaching the Club will be holding its annual quiz this Wed evening (17th Dec 2026). With the best of intentions it always starts well but it usually descends into argumentative chaos! Look forward to seeing all members.

The Morse Phone can be used to get started with the Morse code. You can use him to practice, but you can also pair two or more Morse Phones and send messages to each other.
The Morse Phone is designed by Service Kring for Scouting JOTA & JOTI events.
It is a Morse beep that can be used standalone but also can be linked with other Morse Phones, after all, you communicate together! The Morse Phone is inspired by the Fuller phone, a bit of history.
The Fuller phone is a Morse telegraphy device that has been developed
during the first world war by major A.C. Fuller. In the years after that, the
Fuller phone is further developed and remained in use until after the second
world war. The ideas of A.C. Fuller were not new but he has managed to
make a device that could be applied in war situations and harder to
eavesdrop than the already existing telegraphy equipment.
The Morse Phone can be used in several ways:
Independent, as Morse sounder, the Morse Phone will give a beep if the key is pressed.
Linked to one or more other Morse Phones (or a real Fuller phone).
