Want to become a Ham? Want to Upgrade?

Our Amateur Radio Club supports training of
new HAMS and encourages license upgrades

Every month we will have either a training session, formal presentation or a Pot Luck meal as a part of the meeting. With each pot luck, members will also get to bring items to sell or buy from others. Or... just bring something interesting to show that other hams need just to show us all!

 

New ham training/licensing class is underway, watch for updates here and on the weekly nets. The officers also plan specific follow-up events for new hams to fully integrate and support them with their new license. Michael Robinson, KC0TA is our lead VEC. As discussed on recent weekly nets, both scheduling of ham slams and public testing sessions are a part of it. Michael is our training officer and will present segments from time to time on the nets. Any member can deliver these quick training segments so be writing up a 1-3 minute segment to deliver during the net. He will also do so in rotation with other presenters.

All of the above is on hold until actual in-person meetings resume
