ast year we packed up a few projects, a pile of flyers, and the usual “sure we’ll only be there an hour” optimism… and had a brilliant day out at the Phoenix Amateur Radio Club annual rally in Coolmine. Good news: it’s on again this year, and we’ll be back along representing TOG — **EI0TOG** — for a chat, a catch-up, and a bit of radio craic. ### Radio rallies are for everyone If you’ve never been to a radio rally, don’t let the name put you off. They’re **not just for licensed amateurs** or hardcore collectors — they’re for anyone who likes **electronics, making, fixing, DIY, audio gear, test equipment, and learning how things work**. You’ll see traders with radios and antennas, boxes of components, the “maybe I’ll need that someday” adapters, and plenty of people happy to help you figure out what you’re looking at (or what you accidentally bought!). ### The details **Date:** Sunday **15th February 2026** **Event:** 2026 Phoenix Amateur Radio Club “Coolmine” Rally **Venue:** **Coolmine Community School, Dublin, D15 FW97** **Doors open:** **10:00**  ### Say hello to TOG (EI0TOG) Drop over and say hi at the TOG table. Whether you’re curious about getting started in radio, want to know what a hackerspace is like, or you’re deep into a project and looking for a nudge in the right direction — we’re always up for a chat. And if you’re already on the air, give us a wave — it’s always great to meet radio friends in person as well as over the bands. ### Photos from last year Want a taste of what the Coolmine Rally is like? Here’s our gallery from last year’s visit — stalls, treasures, and the general rally buzz: [https://www.tog.ie/gallery/nggallery/all/phoenix-amateur-radio-club-annual-radio-rally-2025](https://www.tog.ie/gallery/nggallery/all/phoenix-amateur-radio-club-annual-radio-rally-2025)

This coming Saturday (14th Feb) we will have another walk - in five North Dublin Parks. From the meeting point, we will walk to the nearby King Inns Park, then Broadstone Park, Blessington Street Basin, Glasnevin Cemetery and ending up in the spectacular National Botanic Gardens. After the walk we will walk to a bus stop so that people can take a bus home. **Meeting Location:** Smithfield LUAS Stop - by the front of the Doughnuts & Coffee stall on the Tallaght/Saggart Heuston Station Side. If the weather is good, we may stop for a short picnic along the way, so you may wish to bring food and drink. Or we could also stop for refreshments in either the Botanic Gardens cafe or in the historic Gravediggers' pub by the entrance to Glasnevin. At the time of writing the weather is looking to be OK. Feel free to come on the walk even if you haven't been to a meet up before. This is a great way to meet new people and see new places. \*\*\* If you wish to wander off during a break then it's probably OK but please agree with the organisers a time you'll return so we're not waiting for you \*\*\* We hope to see you there! [Host(s)] Tim (085 718 5658) Feel free to send a message via Whatsapp or leave a message below. FAQs 1. Is there a charge for this event? No, this is a free event. Sometimes we have events that involve a visit to a museum or garden with an entrance fee - but this will be clearly marked in the details 2. Is it OK for people on a short visit to Ireland to join this walk? Yes both visitors and residents alike are welcome to join our walks. 3. How easy/difficult is this walk? Most walking groups would classify this as an easy walk, but having a reasonable level of fitness is recommended. The total distance is around 6km. 4. Why are there only a limited number of places for this event? To ensure the best possible experience for the people attending it is necessary to limit the numbers, especially as the chosen route may not be straightforward and along narrow paths. 5. Why is it necessary to book on this event if you wish to attend? This is because there are only a limited number of spaces (see point above) and to ensure the fairest allocation of spaces, we kindly request everyone to book a place. It's OK to change your mind about coming but please change your RSVP as soon as you have for someone else to take the place if they wish to and so we're not waiting for you unnecessarily. **\*\*\* RSVP Essential \*\*\*** PLEASE NOTE: Walking like many outdoor activities carries an element of risk. People who take part in our meet up activities do so at their own risk and are responsible for their own actions and involvement. If you join our walks you agree that you wish to take part in the activities despite these risks. Please wear shoes or runners that you find comfortable. It is also recommended to bring water to avoid dehydration. Bring warm clothes and a waterproof jacket or umbrella in case of inclement weather. If you have walking poles you may wish to bring them too as some paths are a bit steep. The Wild Travellers' Adventures Meetup Group supports the Leave No Trace Campaign
