Enigin.com - Facing the Music!

Last night I had the pleasure of attending a friend’s social event at a local venue, however I was forced to face the music in respect of the disco that was hired for the event. Why is it that musicians and record companies go to great lengths to produce first class sounds from their records balancing each instrument carefully with the vocal content when almost all so called DJs have the tremendous aptitude for reducing weeks of work into two distinct sounds that can almost cave your chest in with the volume turned up full blast.

Working for Enigin, one of my hobbies is Amateur radio.   It wont be long now and if you are an Amateur Radio or Short wave listener you will able to get involved in the Annual RNLI SOS charity Radio Event.

What is SOS Radio Week all about?

SOS Radio Week is nine days of fun, non-competitive, operating and fund raising by Radio Amateurs for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). It takes place at the end of January to co-incide with the RNLI’s own SOS fund raising day.

How to get involved

Getting involved is simple, regardless of whether you can operate all week, for one one day, or just a couple of hours each day - every penny raised makes a big difference to the RNLI.   As soon as it’s 00:00 (UTC) on the start of the event you start making as many contacts as you can, promoting SOS Radio Week to everyone you speak to. Remember, though, you cannot ask for donations over the air - you can, however, direct them to this web site for further information.

The last day of the event is the Sunday following the RNLI’s own SOS fund raising day.

Last year saw several special event stations on the air during the event, some from local stations.

I will be operating on all of the HF bands and doing my bit.  Why not listen out for me, my callsign is M3XTM and I will be operating a QRP (Low Power Output) station.  If you are not interested in amateur radio you can still make a donation to the RNLI, click the links above.  I am sure all those at Enigin will be supporting me.
