The fall classes are scheduled to begin on 13 Sept. at NAIT again. Basic and CW classes are being offered. It is currently looking for hams of all ages and levels of certification to present and explain amateur radio to the general public. VE6SSC is a very well equipped station and volunteers can use it for free. Interested hams can contact Ed Hay VE6EGH at 479-2765.
All overhead is paid for by the station.
Ham volunteers operate the station. Volunteers are needed to allow the centre to expand the operating hours of the station. RAES and other radio clubs in the Edmonton area are part of the Centre's Advisory Council. The centre feels that amateur radio is a great way to stimulate interest in science and technology. The station is open to the public as an exhibit, but hams can use the station for special events such as Jamboree On The Air and Girl Guides On The Air.
