RSGB National Radio Centre to reopen

/

The RSGB’s National Radio Centre (NRC) will reopen on Friday 28 May 2021 and be open each day, other than Wednesdays, until further notice.

Whilst the radio room will be open for the demonstration of amateur radio, visitors won’t be allowed inside the radio room and only NRC volunteers will be permitted to operate the GB3RS station.

The RSGB reserve the right to close the National Radio Centre at short notice should the COVID-19 situation change, so do check our website before travelling.

Unfortunately, the NRC will be closed completely from Monday, 14 June 2021 to Thursday, 17 June 2021 inclusive while groundworks are carried out in the immediate vicinity of the NRC.

Visitors to Bletchley Park need to pre-book and pay via their website so we are unable to offer our free entry voucher to RSGB members while that system is in place.
