  • Excellent

    It's really good that a volunteer is prepared to make up for the limitations of the RSGB, who don't really care that their previous provision was broken when they "improved" their web site. OK, so there's a spelling mistake in the word bulletin but at least the news is there for those who can't hear it over the air.

  • Hit and Miss

    Its a great shame but the GB2RS popcast isn't updated often enough for it to be worthwhile. If the RSGB would keep it updated rather than relying on a volunteer to do it.
