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)

    General
    What is the benefit of using the opposite or “reverse” sideband when receiving CW?

    Interference from impulse noise will be eliminated
    More stations can be accommodated within a given signal passband
    It may be possible to reduce or eliminate interference from other signals
    Accidental out-of-band operation can be prevented
    Extra
    What is a disadvantage of decreasing the number of wire segments in an antenna model below 10 segments per half-wavelength?

    Ground conductivity will not be accurately modeled
    The resulting design will favor radiation of harmonic energy
    The computed feed point impedance may be incorrect
    The antenna will become mechanically unstable
