Conlticl! Dave Richardson (left) radio ham and crew member of Clecthorpes inshore lifeboat, makes contact with Tel-Aviv, a contact that's worth £20 from one sponsor alone, during a 24-hour sponsored amateur radio event held at Cleethorpcs lifeboat station. The marathon was held in a bid to raise £1,000 for equipment for the new station. Looking on are (second from left to right) lifeboat launcher Eric Smith, radio ham Joe Carter, crew member Martin Kennedv and senior helmsman Dave Stcenvoorden. photograph by anutcsx ol (ii'ini h - Evening ri'legraph.
