Re: Rochdale radio rally returns
Can you post that info to G4RGA for his online Rally List?
It's the first place many people look for rally dates, and should drum up a few visitors. http://www.g4rga.org.uk/All.html |

Re: Rochdale radio rally returns
Is the rally specifically geared to amateur radio or is there anything of interest to the general vintage fraternity?

Re: Rochdale radio rally returns
Hi Dave, its an amateur radio rally but there are many stallholders who are reducing collections. Plus surplus components , ex military gear, aerials, radios etc. There is a truly eclectic mix. I don't have a list of traders but you could ask at the website. link enclosed

Re: Rochdale radio rally returns
Added to the forum calendar. It's good when we get a couple of weeks or more notice like this and can add these events and anyone interested can make plans (so often people don't post until a day or two before).

Re: Rochdale radio rally returns
Good news and Just over the Moor, through Edenfield, from Ramsbottom. I've been to quite a few of these in the past. I'm expecting to be back in the North by the 19th

Re: Rochdale radio rally returns
I've booked a stall, a last minute squeeze me in stall.
I'll have old stuff and modern stuff to clear out, hopefully. Haven't sorted out what to take yet. Hope I can talk the Mrs into missing bingo to assist me (doubtful) |
