This is the website of the RAF Waddington Amateur Radio Club, based at the Pyewipe Inn, Lincoln, England.
We are a group of individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds and experience, all with a shared passion for everything radio! Not sure what amateur radio is? Find out all about it at the Radio Society of Great Britain.
We hope you enjoy your visit to our site and look forward to meeting you on a club night or on the air.
A reminder to members that we plan to celebrate Christmas in style with a couple of social events:
Members were fortunate to be treated yesterday evening to a private screening of the film “Attack on Sorpe Dam” in the Clock Room at the Pyewipe Inn.
RAF Waddington Amateur Radio Club returned to former RAF Binbrook for Remembrance Weekend SES over the weekend of 9-10 November, using the club callsign of G0RAF to remember the brave crews who flew from RAF Binbrook.
The set-up day for our last Special Event of the season (9-10 November) clashed with the date orginally set for our regular end-of-year committee meeting, so this meeting will now be held a week early, on Friday, 1st November, in the club shack at the Pyewipe as usual. Members are very welcome to listen, so please come along and find out what your committee have been up to!
Mark your diaries and come along to the Pyewipe shack for what promises to be a fascinating talk by Nigel, who survived after his life support was turned off following a motorcycle crash. Since then, Nigel has gained his Foundation licence and broken motorcycle speed records, despite loss of vision and a brain injury!
We’d like to thank all the traders and visitors to our rally, the East Midlands Ham and Electronics Rally, which took place recently at Beckingham Village Hall, Beckingham, who helped to make this a successful and pleasant day. We’re planning to run another event on 25th May, 2025 at the same venue: keep an eye on our rally page for further details nearer the time.
Our final club barbecue of the year was held on Saturday, for club members and invited guests, at the club shack at the Pyewipe Inn.
RAF Waddington ARC returned to the International Bomber Command Centre on Sunday, 1st September for the centre’s Wings and Wheels event..
