Leicester Radio Society & Computer Club

  
G2AA - G3LRS - G6XRS - G5UM

The Club!
 
  • The development of Amateur radio and all associated activities
  • Training of newcomers and those who wish to upgrade licenses.
  • Provision of the best possible equipment and facilities for the above to take place in pleasant and suitable areas.
  • Supporting all aspects of Amateur Radio including repeater sites and Raynet groups.

Access for wheelchairs and cars with suitable parking arrangements.

Training rooms for candidates that are properly designed and set out, able to fulfill this role on several days of the week and for candidates with a very broad range of physical abilities.

Shacks with sound-deadening built in, to prevent general noise from interfering with radio operation. HF/ VHF shacks are separate.

Lecture room to cater for visiting speakers and larger club meetings.

Committee room - where the business of running the society can take place without interrupting these other operations.

Refreshment and Toilet areas to cater for everyone that wishes to join in at LRS - no one should be barred from membership because of any physical disability or building access / design limitations. The social side of membership is as important as anything else. To have somewhere pleasant to stand and sit and chat is a consideration here.

Parking on site.

What do members get for their money?

We currently have close to 112 M2 / 1200 sq. ft. within a Victorian house and adjacent semi-portable lecture / meeting room. The lecture room is used for lectures (obviously), meetings, chatting and training purposes. The main house comprises a basic kitchen facility, CW training / Committee room, small training room, a first floor HF shack, a first floor workshop and adjacent VHF / UHF shack. We also possess a fine range of radio equipment, ancillary equipment, towers, aerials and, best of all, a friendly and welcoming membership. Radio Examination and Novice classes are available subject to availability of space and trainers - volunteers are always welcome!
