Ham Radio is Growing Fast in Tri-Cities
I ve noticed that a lot of new hams have been hitting the airwaves in the Tri-Cities lately. I am most impressed with a young kid, maybe 12 years old, who took the time to study and recently got his ham license. I m sure his dad was there to help him study, but the enthusiasm this young man has for the hobby is real. Young ham operators like that are proof that even if you didn t grow up with Smokey and The Bandit during the CB craze, interest in two-way radio communication still runs high. Maybe you re a fan of Last Man Standing where Tim Allen is a TV ham operator (and in real life too).
Local groups launch trackable, solar-powered, weather-transmittable balloon

RICHLAND, Wash A group of researchers gathered early Thursday morning at the REACH Museum to launch a project they’ve been working on for months a seven-foot long trackable, solar-powered, weather-transmittable balloon.
Members from the museum, local nonprofit SILAS Education and Spout Springs Repeater Association (SSRA) met just after 6 a.m. on March 11th for their second launch attempt after strong winds from the week prior forced a delay.
“This was a relief to see the perfect conditions as far as the weather goes this morning and to see that balloon sailing off into the sky,” said Pauline Schafer, the museum’s education manager.
