Ham Connect for new & aspiring amateur radio operators

The Hubs are a co-sponsor of this event, where you will meet other experienced hams and have an opportunity to learn how to use your new knowledge to participate more fully in the world of ham radio.  This includes activities such as contesting, getting on HF, outdoor activities like Parks on the Air, DIY antenna building, and how to prepare for and participate in emergency communication (EmComm) either from home or in the field. This preparation often involves fun events that provide community service while expanding radio skills.

Hosted by the Puget Sound Repeater Group as a part of the Seattle ARRL Field Day, the Ham Connect Program will be one of multiple presentations at this all-things-radio event.  Come for the entire day and visit the working radios stations set up to help hams get on the air.

The event will be in the north parking lot of South Seattle Collect, look for the antennas!
