[W8MWA] Fwd: MHS Ham Radio Club

[Monongalia Wireless Assoc]

Hey everyone!

Received this today and am passing it on for anyone that can be around to
chat with these aspiring hams over the next few Thursdays.  I’ll be
verifying the repeater frequency with David and sending him more
information about the club.

Good morning,

My name is Daniel Kimble and I am an out-of-practice ham radio operator
with a Tech license that I have renewed twice. As a teenager, I was
somewhat active on the 2-meter band. I still have 2 very old Realistic
HTX-202 handhelds, but it has been a while since I have done anything other
than listen. I have been meeting with a few students at Morgantown High
School and preparing them for their Technician license exam.  The school
provided us with some study books, and we are having weekly study sessions.
We would love to have some contact with members of the community that are
active ham radio operators. I know about your meetings, and I actually
attended a few many years ago while going to school at WVU. Hopefully, some
of us will be future members of the MWA.  We will be meeting today from
10:20 to 11:05 and Thursday of the next few weeks at the same time. I'm not
sure I can reach anyone on my 2-meter radios, but it would be nice for the
students to be able to have contact with our class. We would also welcome
anyone that would like to come in person to help us out. There are about
six students that are working hard to get their license. We hope that we
can get them licensed and start a growing club of ham operators at MHS.

Sincerely,

Daniel Kimble
