Amateur radio callbook log from the Central Boys School radio club, detailing activities in October 1964. Scan kindly supplied by Tony Hancock.
Reader Tony Hancock (it is raining here, also – can’t be his real name, can it?) kindly sent me this odd bit of Brownhills Central Boy’s School ephemera. Apparently, there was a ham radio club set up for the pupils, run by a teacher caller Mr. Morris, who may well have taught at a school in Hednesford, and traveled to local schools to take radio classes.
This was certainly an international affair, as contact with stations in Finland, Estonia and Italy is listed. Were you a member of this apparently short-lived society? Can you enlighten me about Mr. Morris? Please comment if you have anything to say…
I thank Tony for his wonderful bit of very left-field history. It just goes to show: you can never tell what’ll turn up next…
