[UK-CONTEST] Portable operation PLI

[David]

Another way to get liability insurance for free is to be a member of a club
that is affiliated to the RSGB and then ensure your activity is a club
activity. Then via the RSGB affiliation the club has I think it is £5m of
liability cover. But you do have to meet the conditions, which is why for
club activities we always make sure everyone taking part is a paid up club
member.

Craig,
You're lucky not to also be hit with Health & Safety legislation, Risk
Assessment, PAT testing, CRB . . .  you wouldn't believe the utter nonsense
that we have been put through just to set up a couple of antennas for
GR100MGY. All operators have to be pre-registered, hard hats are required
for setting up antennas.

'Blame & Claim' and 'Zero-Risk' are marvellous tools for national & local
politicians and petty bureaucrats to control how we all live these days: we
are now absolved of taking personal responsibility for our own actions. It's
spreading like a plague. Next it will be hard hats for Field Day.

Hi all,

I have been going portable ontop of a local hill owned by the forestry 
commision for a couple of years.  They have now stated that they require me 
to have 3rd party public liability insurance, has anyone had this issue 
before, if so is there any good rates out there as I only go portable around

a dozen times throughout the year.

Many thanks
