Re: Becker Radio AR4201
Thanks for your advice, checked the aerial contact which was good and the signal strength was also normal, however no modulation.

Shobdon Airfield
It's the Herefordshire Aero Club AGM next week & I wondered if any one had any comments (good or bad) they would like to make.
I am particularly keen to hear how members view Shobdon as a place to visit.

Clive was a great supporter of Home built aircraft, and he was a great help to me in my first build, a Mk4 Avid.

Shobdon Fly in
Nice to see a few brave hardy souls made it on Saturday. The met office forecast put most people off with gusts of 40mph.
We planned for 130 arrivals & in fact only 13 made it.
Today Sunday is a complete wash out, oh well ther's always next year.
