July 2018 sees 90 years since the HF Maritime Radio Service moved from the Devizes transmitter site to Portishead, with the operational centre located at Highbridge, Somerset.
The 90th anniversary of Portishead Radio will be commemorated by three special event amateur radio stations operating from 1 to 28 July;
GB0GKA will be run by Tony, G3ZRJ from near Tiverton. Larry, G4HLN will run GB0GKB from Burnham-on-Sea, whilst GB0GKC in Weston-super-Mare will be operated by Pete, G3TJE. All three are ex-GKA Radio Officers.
In addition there will be a reunion for all ex-staff on 28th July, tickets for which are already sold out. However there is a QRY list in case of any last-minute cancellations.
