==Things to during EMF==
===Radio Village Workshops/Talks===
We plan on running some small talks/workshops on a fairly informal basis, these will include:
* Introduction to software defined radio - Dominic
* Something TBD - Paul
* Introduction to Amateur Radio (something related to main presentation) - Ryan?
* YOUR_TALK_HERE

===Contests===
During EMF the following contests will be running

===Special Event Station===
Paul (M0OKE) has applied for an NoV for a special call sign for a special event station, '''[[GB2EMF]]'''.

This has been granted.

Colin (G8TMV) has organised RSGB posters and info leaflets.

===Talk In===
Talk in has been suggested on 2/70 on Friday. Operator(s) required. Assuming 145.550 MHz.

===Modes & Bands===

Steve M0SPN intends to run Voice, PSK and SSTV on HF. VHF/UHF dependent on availability of masts and beams.

Iain MM6MVQ intends to have an SSTV receiving station operating during EMF on 70cm (exact freq. TBC) that will tweet any images received to a dedicated Twitter account. For details on this, contact [mailto:irl@fsfe.org irl@fsfe.org].

==Local Stuff==

===Clubs===
* Milton Keynes ARS (MKARS) are literally just up the road from the campsite - http://www.mkars.org.uk/

===Repeaters===
It would be very cool to have a dedicated on-site repeater just for EMF. The practicality wouldn't be too difficult -- M0RND can provide a 2m/70cm colinear (which might be able to be hosted on the main EMF mast), and there's no shortage of radios which can do cross-band repeat, or something could be lashed up with two Baofeng UV-B5 radios and a diplexer.

The awkward part would be getting an NoV for the repeater, and getting it in time for EMF.
