Strengthening the Amateur Radio community through fun events!

Our mission is to deliver high-quality and innovate amateur radio related educational content, hands-on experiences, and license testing sessions online and in-person through events. We believe that the more people know about amateur radio, the more safe, secure, functional, and innovative our wireless products, services, and experiments will be.

Our team of dedicated volunteers is responsible for generating all new research, giving talks and demonstrations at events, building and testing experiments, as well as offering support to the general ham radio community.
