KU COMMUNICATES WITH THE WORLD
Scott Gaulding, Overland Park senior, is shown operating KU's ham station, W$\theta$AHW, while talking to DL50L in West Germany.
Back on the air after two years, the KU ham radio club expects a lot of messages before and after spring break telling mothers when junior will get home and whether he got back to KU in one piece or in pieces.
Hams send notes
By WILL HARDESTY
By law, the KU Amateur Radio Club (KUARC) can't take money for handling messages or radiograms.
BUT EACH YEAR, ham radio stations like this one handle thousands of messages from students, servicemen and others to families across the world and country, said Scott Gaulding, Overland Park senior and club vice-president.
The club has a tie-in with servicemen across the world through MARS, the Military Affiliate Radio Service. A ham radio hook-up with Vietnam went into effect last year.
Gaulding said the station, WOAHW, has been back on the air for less than a month. When it went off the air, it was located in the house across Iowa at 15th and Iowa. Now it is in Learned Hall.
Operation has been mainly "ironing out kinks and handling the messages we've been given," Gaulding said.
The station consists partly of equipment which club members built.
THE KUARC HOPES to start code and theory classes later in the semester for those who would like to get their ham licenses.
The next club meeting will be April 12. The club will operate the station during the Engineering Exposition.

"College Men need a Specialist to help them get the most for their insurance dollars. That's because college men's insurance requirements differ from those of non-college men.
I specialize in life insurance for college men, with College Life's famous policy, THE BENEFACTOR, designed expressly for college men. And since college men are preferred risks, The Benefactor is priced to sell exclusively to college men. Like to know more? Call me. No obligation, of course."
