Club holds Golden Jubilee dinner at the Golden Cock

It was good to welcome two of our founders to the 50th anniversary dinner of the Denby Dale Radio Club at the Golden Cock, Farnley Tyas.
Our president, Gerald G3SDY, (pictured with his wife, Denise G1DEN) and Phil, G4FSQ, were in at the beginning, when a Trio multi-band receiver could be bought for £42. They remain active members.
Friends old and new gathered for the Golden Jubilee evening on September 5 and our celebrations continued with special event stations – call sign GB5ODC – at our site on Field Lane.
We were well looked after by the friendly team at the Golden Cock, where we hold our monthly meetings, and many thanks to Richard, M0RBG for his work in arranging this happy occasion.
If you'd like to see what we were up to 25 years ago, check out this video by Malcolm Williams. More pictures of our evening may be found in news and the gallery.
Our 50th anniversary continues with a special events station on two days of this month. Details can be found on our events page. Meanwhile, here's a snapshot of our convivial and not entirely teetotal evening.
