About W7YH

The Rho Epsilon Amateur Radio Club was formally founded at Washington State University (then Washington State College) in 1911 by H.V. Carpenter, Homer Dana and Royal Sloan as the first university ham radio club in the world.

Our goal is to reestablish the club as a means for those interested in amateur radio to meet each other and share ideas. Hopefully the club will foster experimentation and facilitate an operating station for amateur radio.

UPDATE: We WILL be participating in the Salmon Run!  Join the list serve (contact us page) and ask the list for information where.  It will NOT be on campus, as we don't have antennas up yet.

This is Wasington's QSO Party:  A contest where the rest of the US tries to make contact with Washington stations.  Awards are given out based on scores, worked all WA counties, etc.  As Whitman County is not a very active county in Amateur Radio, this should be a fun, high-demand contest to work!  (now, if we only had a functional station....)

Amateur Radio General and Extra License Training Material

There are three classes of Amateur Radio License available in the US, Technician, General, and Extra. Each class provides slightly more privileges than the former. Passing the Technician Class exam will get you full privileges on amateur radio bands above 30 MHz (VHF, UHF, microwave and up). General Class adds many bands below 30 MHz, and Extra class allows more access to these bands.
