[KYHAM] Radio Theory and Construction Workshop

[Bill Fuqua]

The Radio Theory and Construction Workshop will meet Saturday, March 20,
2004 in the basement of the Red Cross Building at 1450 Newtown Pike,
Lexington, KY. The basement entrance is on the Left side of the building if
you are looking at the front (Newtown Pike side) of it.The Workshop will
begin at 1:00PM and continue until 3:00PM. This workshop is for anyone
interested in the subject of radio theory or construction. Anyone may join
the workshop at any time. This workshop does not really have a beginning or
an end. It is a continuing effort to help those that are interested in
knowing more about the internal workings of radios (receivers, transmitters
and antennas) and/or building them. A ham license is not required and there
are no age restrictions. I encourage young students to participate.
Participants will have to obtain their own tools and they will need to
purchase a beginner's radio kit (AM-550K). I have kits in stock so you will
not have to wait. Just pay me for the kit and I'll order another to replace
it. That way we will have some always available for new participants.
The Bluegrass Amateur Radio Society's Youth Education Program (Y.E.P.) can
provide "Now You're Talking" books for students up thru the 12th grade
participating in our "Introduction to Amateur Radio" and books, kits, tools
and parts for those in the "Radio Theory and Construction Workshop" at no
cost. This kit cost about $20 and it is perfect for learning soldering,
component identification and basic radio theory.
If you wish to join our workshop please e-mail me so that I can add
you to our list. I have a short questionnaire to get some information about
your interest, experience and knowledge level. If you cannot be contacted
by e-mail call me in the evening at
(859) 272-9523 and I will add you to a phone list. This is necessary
because we do not hold the workshop every weekend due to other obligations,
vacation, hamfest and license exam sessions.

April 3,2004 we may not meet due to a Hamfest in E-Town. Keep an eye out
for an announcement that week. Unless something goes terribly wrong I will 
be attending
the E-Town Hamfest.
Also I will be attending the 53 Dayton Hamvention which is May 14, 15 and 16.
It is the largest hamfest in the world. You may want to set aside some time 
to attend it.
