What Makes the Ping Go Ping?

24/11/2016 • General

Tonight at Pine Trees, we will be showing a presentation (video) which is available on the RSGB website as a download for members and affiliated clubs.

‘What makes the ping go ping?’ was a presentation delivered by John Worsnop, @G4BAO, at the 2015 RSGB convention and covers the interesting subject of meteor scatter.

John covers all aspects, such as meteor trail formation, receivers and antennas and the effects of the meteor scatter on operating frequencies.

Meteor scatter is a fascinating subject, so please join us at Pine Trees from 7pm to view the presentation.
