Grant: Amateur Radio Club at USF (WB4USF)

Date: November 2022
Amount: $14,900

The Amateur Radio Club at the University of South Florida (USF) was founded in May 2022 with Dr. Chris Ferekides as the faculty advisor. The club currently has 26 members who are committed to expanding the club with members of the diverse 50,000-student body at USF and giving fellow students a hands-on understanding of radio/communication technology.

This grant will enable the club to provide a physical place for members to operate within the scope of their license privileges, learn from those with more experience, and to work on club-related projects. This station will serve as a point of entry for interested students by allowing the club to demonstrate the many exciting aspects of the art of radio.
