On Saturday 29th September the Thornbury and South Gloucestershire Amateur Radio Club visited the Royal Signals museum at Blandford Forum. The visit was instigated by Rex, Peter and John who provided CW coaching to the general public at the 2014 Bristol International Balloon Fiesta as part of a BBC World War one exhibit.<\/p>\n

A good day was had with many exhibits to be viewed from the early semaphore systems and the reasons why to modern day encrypted systems as used in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

The on-site Cafe served us very well with mid-morning snacks and an excellent three course lunch hihi.<\/p>\n

In addition to the museum a well stocked gift shop allowed members to purchase gift items and also some equipment as used by the services today. Some members also visited the Camp shop where more equipment was available.<\/p>\n

Four vehicles travelled to Blandford as a single vehicle and a loose format convoy carrying 12 people. My thanks to the drivers.<\/p>\n
