Kopernik Friday Night Livestream: Ham Radio 101
Presented by Andrew Deskur, Director of Kopernik Observatory
Date/Time: Friday, September 20 @ 8 PM EDT
Even with cellphones and Wi-Fi everywhere, Ham Radio remains popular, with nearly 750,000 licensed Amateur Radio operators in the U.S. today and the numbers keep growing. Ham Radio has something to offer everyone, whether a person likes to build equipment, is interested in public service, or wants to talk to people around the world. Come learn about a hobby that engages people from 5 years old to 105. Hear Drew Deskur, Kopernik Director and ham radio operator get on the air and talk to a Ham thousands of miles away!
We are excited to offer this program both online and in-person. For those that can visit us on-site, doors open at 7:30pm and the program begins at 8:00pm. If the skies are clear, our domes will be open for you to view the night skies through Kopernik’s telescopes both before and after the program.
