The Shenandoah Valley Amateur Radio Club invites members of the public to join us to GOTA! Get on the Air.
We will be hosting several field radio stations to help local Scouts earn their merit badge for Amateur Radio.
If you are not a scout, never self-identified as one, but would like to experience getting on the air and making some contacts with other scouts and other amateur radio operators around the country and world, stop by for a few minutes and say “hello”
•This is a free event.
•Non licensed persons will be using the club’s callsign, W4RKC, under the
guidance of a licensed radio amateur.
•All ages are welcome to join us.
•The Scouts will have priority on the radios
•Location: 2925 Grace Street Winchester, VA 22601
•Parking in the rear of the clubhouse – look for the antennas!
