In part one of our reports from Hamfest 2017 we have a sneak preview of the Icom IC7610 and ICR8600 rigs. We meet the new owners of PW Magazine, and Pete tries his hand at the RSGB online exam. There’s also an update on the Society’s EMC Committee’s findings. Bob finds his way back to New Broadcasting House in London where the Director General discovers he has amateurs working for the Corporation. Nevertheless, Lord Hall broadcasts from the shack of the newly resurrected club station G8BBC. And, Laurie Margolis G3UML recounts an historic QSO he had from the early 1980s.
