Alberto Montes de Oca, La Paz, Bolivia, junior, attempts to contact his parents in his hometown on a ham radio.
KU students find world at their fingertips through ham radio
By Mauricio Rios Kansan staff writer
KU students can interact with the rest of the world not only through study abroad programs and foreign students on campus. They also can communicate through an old and simple apparatus: a radio.
That's what the KU Amateur Club, a group of about 40 members, has been doing since its birth 45 years ago. Members and other students can use the club's radio system in Learned to contact people around the world.
Bill Rubin, president of the club,
said the purpose of the club was to promote amateur radio among students
and provide service to the community as a whole.
The Amateur Radio Club was founded just after World War II, he said.
Rubin, Long Island, N.Y., sophmore, said that students who were away from home could communicate with their families through the radio.
Alberto Montes de Oca, La Paz,
Bolivia, junior, one of them.
"My father has a radio and then I sort of inherited his devotion," he said. Montes de Oca speaks with his family in Bolivia every week.
But ham radio is not a supplement for the telephone because the Federal
"I have talked to people in South America and as far as South Africa. It's pretty amazing, and that's the attraction of the hobby."
Glenn Prescott, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering
Communications Commission restricts discussion of certain subjects, hesaid.
"You can't talk about money or politics," he said. "So when I want to talk about something important, I use the telephone."
Glenn Prescott, associate professor in the department of electrical and computer engineering, said, "The purpose of the club is to advance the art of ham radio operation."
Prescott, a supervisor for the club,
said that radio amateurs did many radio projects and could communicate with people all around the globe.
"I have talked to people in South America and as far as South Africa," he said. "It's pretty amazing, and that's the attraction of the hobby."
Rubin said half of the club's members were students. He also said that
*Knowledge grows as interest grows.* he said
Michael Marmor, vice president of the Amateur Radio Club, said the only requirement to join the club was to have interest in radio and in talking to other people.
"I listen more than I said," he said, explaining that he first learned that the coup in Russia was over by listeners. He was told by radio Moscow. "That was kind of neat."
Marmor said the ham radio at KU was fully equipped so people could use it to communicate with other universities, to practice foreign languages and in emergency situations. Nets, or groups of individuals, also discuss special interests by radio.
Marmor explained that a student learning German, for instance, could use the radio to listen to a broadcast in English and then speak to someone in that foreign language.
"KU's station happens to be one of the most powerful ham stations on the earth," he said, explaining that ham stations are designed to virtually any place in the world.
"Any body who wants to join can join," Rubin said. "It's a lot of fun."
