Who We Are:
Our club is a diverse group of men, women and youth interested in electronics and radio communications. Joining an amateur radio club offers you:

  • Instruction and tutoring
  • Additional advanced training
  • Work on electronic DIY projects
  • Access to club radio equipment which offers an opportunity for hands-on” experience.

    • Hams provide Emergency Communications on a volunteer basis during times of local and national disasters. Amateur Radio Operators (Hams) volunteer their communications skills to Police, Fire and other Local, State and Federal agencies during these times of emergency. During such an event, Amateur Radio is often the only working form of communication still available as storms, floods, fires and other disasters can quickly take down the public communication infrastructure such as cell phones, home phones and the internet.

    With their emergency power supplies, such as batteries, solar panels and generators, amateur radio operators can get on the air and provide fast and reliable communications in almost any condition. (More Info)

    What is the velocity of a radio wave traveling through free space?

    Speed of light
    Speed of sound
    Speed inversely proportional to its wavelength
    Speed that increases as the frequency increases
    General
    What signal source is connected to the vertical input of an oscilloscope when checking the RF envelope pattern of a transmitted signal?

    The local oscillator of the transmitter
    An external RF oscillator
    The transmitter balanced mixer output
    The attenuated RF output of the transmitter
    Extra
    What is the difference in radiated power between a lossless antenna with gain and an isotropic radiator driven by the same power?

    The power radiated from the directional antenna is increased by the gain of the antenna
    The power radiated from the directional antenna is stronger by its front-to-back ratio
    They are the same
    The power radiated from the isotropic radiator is 2.15 dB greater than that from the directional antenna
