Activity Weekends
GW3NWR/P During an Activity Weekend
The BATC organises and co-ordinates a number of activity weekends for ATV operators throughout the year. The latest information along with information on stations who might be active can be found on the BATC Forum
The aim of activity weekends is to provide a focus for ATV Activity. Any activity – home station or portable – is welcomed.
