Once a year, when the mince pies are warm, the batteries are fully charged, and nobody can remember where the spare coax went, the Dragon Amateur Radio Club gathers for its most important transmission of all… the Christmas Party.
There were:
- Questionable jumpers emitting on all frequencies
- Tall tales about DX contacts that definitely happened (honest)
- Buffet negotiations more complex than a contest ruleset
- At least one member explaining radios using napkins
There was laughter, festive cheer, and the annual mystery of how many members brought “just one little gadget” and somehow need a four-way extension lead.
There was no Morse required (other than tapping for more mince pies), licences optional, good humour mandatory.
Members dusted off their callsigns, retune their Christmas spirit, and joined us for an evening of food, fun, and friendly interference.
Best wishes, 73, and ho ho ho! 🎅📡
