-Alive is an activity event to promote the use of 2m FM simplex.
+For more background on the new site, please see this post on the 145 Alive Facebook page:
-Regional nets operate on 2m (on FM and, for the first time in 2026, SSB) across the British Isles over several hours on a chosen day, several times per year, and anyone is welcome to call in and get as many contacts as possible. Just get on the air!

-As of **24 January 2026**, the Facebook group had **5526 members**.
-As of **01 March 2026**, the Facebook group had **5920 members**.
+The 145alive.uk Wiki page (ie. the page you are reading right now) was setup as an interim and basic alternative to the 145Alive Facebook page, to share information with those who do not have Facebook accounts.
-As of **14 March 2026**, the Facebook group had **5936 members**.
+With the advent of https://145alive.com/ there is no further need for this Wiki page, so it will now be put out to pasture, and will not receive any further updates.
+At some point it will be taken down, but is being left live for the moment to signpost visitors to the new site.
+From now on, please visit https://145alive.com/ for event updates.
+See you on 2m!
