Hey HAMs, we got a message to VHS-PR mailing list from a London-based hack space with an ARC wanting to get in touch. I took the liberty of replying, but i’ll post it here as well so you can get in touch as you see fit.
o [sic] far to our knowledge, you are the only other commonwealth hackspace that does amateur radio as well. We’re slowly building out our club but wanted to say hi. Perhaps we can experiment with some digital modes sometime in the future and make contact.
Our group wiki: Group:Amateur Radio - London Hackspace Wiki Redirecting to Google Groups
We are also on irc.freenode.net in #lhs-radio in case you are on IRC and want to say hi.
I wish you all the best and hopefully we can help each other out and be friends through our mutual appreciation of amateur radio.

my reply:
Greetings from the other side of the pond.
VHS is currently all packed up to move to a new space in the coming weeks and I believe the only thing not packed up ready to move is the ARC antenna on the roof. I’ll pass your message along to the members though and see if we can’t get some online communication going in the meantime.
Looking forward to chatting! - V47VHS (VHS ARC)

Thanks Mist! I will write to London ARC btw VHS is call sign VA7VHS
18 de ME? I signed it that way mimicking his syntax of callsign (realname). Unless I should technically have said “on behalf of …” since I’m not a HAM?

We could send a message over 2M Packet via Winlink (Via VA7EOC or other Winlink Gateway) to them.
Unless VHS is outfitted for HF Packet…
