Now, since the scope of interests was broadened to all phases of electronics, the name was changed to the Carnegie Tech Radio Club. Its headquarters were moved from engineering Hall to Room 401 Machinery Hall, and it is now sponsored by the Electrical Engineering Department with Dr. Everard Williams as the faculty advisor. The amateurs are bending their efforts toward rebuilding the transmitter to conform with modern electrical and construction methods. Other activities in the club are code practice and elementary theory classes for newcomers in the radio game, and, for those not interested in ham operating, projects such as building twelve inch oscilloscopes or constructing receivers. The equipment for station WCIT was build and installed by the club, although the two organizations are entirely independent.
Future plans call for a micro-wave program to be started as a major project.
This is an excerpt from the Student Senate minutes. The date isn't known, but it is probably the early 1980's. We need to know whether they will participate in buggy. A list of club members was not available, and they have collected no dues and held no meetings, but they want their status to be changed to that of service organization. Happily, the club rebounded and is again an active campus organization.
