We are a very active club based in East Lothian, near Edinburgh, entering contests, undertaking training, holding talks and events throughout the year.
Members are encouraged to add their own contest reports, articles, equipment reviews, onto the forums, news items, events for the calendar, photos can be uploaded seperately - all are welcome.

If you would like to meet us in person, our club nights are on the first Friday of every month (except January when it's the second Friday) in the lounge of the Thorntree Inn in Cockenzie.

This year's team consists of :- Cambell MM0DXC, Bob GM4UYZ, John MM0JXI, Brian M0RNR, Geoff MM5AHO, Ellis GM4GZW, Moe MM0MRM, Gary MM0FZV, Bob GM4IKT*, Jono MM5FUN*, Jim G3VOU* and Duncan MM0GZZ*.

We look forward to working you from the Island.

CPSARC continues to encourage and welcome newcomers to contesting by including them in our team, giving them the opportunity to experience contesting at a level not normally available to them.
Our IOTA efforts in previous years have earned us top 10 places, see 2007 results.
Our most successful year so far has been 2005 when we came 5th.
