Our event on Thursday 4th December 2009 at the BT Training Centre, Yarnfield, Staffordshire, was a joint presentation with BCS, IET & ITP that was given by Simon Eley, C Eng MIET, JFMG Ltd. The presentation demonstrated just how the wireless frequency spectrum is in short supply and management of the available spectrum for programme makers and theatre directors using wireless microphones and cameras needs to employ new ideas to maximise its use.

Thanks to Ray Piper for arranging the event locally on behalf of ITP.

On Sunday 7th December 2009, Marty Jopson, presented and entertained us at the Central Library, Chamberlain Square, Birmingham, for our annual Christmas Family lecture. In cold weather conditions, almost all of those that had booked arrived to be entertained and educated by a mixture of scientific chemistry and physics examples, which utilised some basic principles to demonstrate so many different applications.

Thanks to everyone who supported this event. Marty presented for us at the London Family Christmas Event a week earlier. Please click here to read the report.
