Intro to Amateur Radio, Lihue Civic Ctr, Planning Rm 2A/B

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has just issued your amateur radio license but you are in a quandary as to what comes next.  How does one actually communicate over the amateur radio frequencies?  What do I say?  What kind I equipment do I need and what does it cost?  The answers to these questions, and more, will be part of a Kauai Amateur Radio Club presentation in February.  The free presentation is open to the public and directed to those newly licensed individuals that have not yet communicated over the air.  For more information please contact Tad Miura at ZSSQ@hotmail.com

Check out the Mayor's Proclamation presented to the Club at the recent field day at Nawiliwili. Click here.

New breakfast venue at The Feral Pig (formerly The Tiki Room and Main Street Diner) located in Harbor Mall at Nawiliwili. Folks begin arriving around 0730. Remember to get your parking ticket validated (while the attendant is hardly ever there for Saturday breakfast, it's a good idea to validate just in case).

North Shore 146.70 MHz repeater is working.  The link to the KH6E repeater system has a problem.

Saturday Breakfast

If you haven't taken part in the Saturday breakfast in a while, you are in for a surprise.  Kauai Amateur Radio Club members, spouses, and guests make up some of the twenty or so that take part in this weekly ritual over at the (See above for location)  The attendees have grown over the past year and now even the XYL's have joined in.  These gals, however, have taken up residence at a separate table, no doubt to discuss matters other than ham radio!

   See Saturday Breakfast for more information.
