[UK-CONTEST] Amateur Radio Insurance

[peter.jackson17 at ntlworld.com]

Thanks for all the input I feel a lot happier now. I have e-mailed them and 
still await their reply.
Home insurance maybe the cheaper way to go. They do cover aerials but do 
they mean TV ones?
So will wait until my renewal date arrives.
73 and thanks again. Pete G3KNU

The policy with Aston Scott is what is available to all Affiliated
clubs at no extra cost. That is for Public Liability insurance only.
Clubs do not have to apply for this separately and RSGB are effectively
the insured party on behalf of its members.

Before they introduced this scheme RSGB recommended ARIS, and clubs
could have it just for PLI or also for equipment cover. Presumably many
clubs do still have ARIS/Blue Fin policies, but these will now be
directly arranged with Blue Fin. These policies are totally separate
from the RSGB Affiliated Societies included cover.
