We were back at the Newark Air Museum for the weekend of 16-17 September,
for the 60th anniversary of the museum’s Avro Vulcan XM594 entering RAF service in September 1963 at RAF Scampton.
Using the callsign GB0NAM, we made many contacts on HF (CW and SSB), and on 2m. Our thanks to those stations who took the time to contact us on what
was a very enjoyable weekend in fine weather. The Maidenhead/QRA locator for the museum is IO93OC and the WAB square is SK85.

A good time was had by all at the weekend’s Special Event Station at
Newark Air Museum’s Cockpit-Fest .
We operated mostly on HF (40m, 20m and 17m) as 2m was very quiet, using the SES callsign GB0NAM,
during a rather warm weekend! We would like to thank the stations we had contacts with, including
a number of stations activating museum sites for Museums on the Air.
