RSGB Convention Goes Online for 2021

/

Despite hoping to meet face-to-face again this year, the RSGB Convention in October will again be online.

This major indoor event takes many months to plan and, due to continuing COVID-19 uncertainty, the Society has to make the safety of attendees, volunteers and staff a priority.

We are putting together another program of excellent presentations across two streams that will provide information and inspiration no matter how long you’ve been a radio amateur.
