Training
We have a long and successful history of getting candidates through the foundation, intermediate and advanced exams.
Training doesn't stop there. the club uses it members experience to further everyone's knowledge and understanding of a wide variety of subjects in ham radio.
We have links to the other Cumbrian clubs and our local FabLab in Cockermouth to help progress the hobby.

For a decade we have been at the forefront of mounting DXpeditions within the British Isles.
A focus of the Scottish west coast islands has brought over 100,000 qso's from multi operator stations using SSB and CW on HF and VHF.
We regularly operate with the Sands contest group and are always happy to accommodate any skill level
