The group anticipates having a supply of the books on hand for the first class. The books are also available at Hilton Sport and Hobby Shop in Newport News and directly from the ARRL. There is a $15.00 testing fee collected on the day of the test which goes to the FCC. For additional information or to register for the class, !

To provide amateur radio equipment to students who have studied and passed the Technician License Exam while enrolled in the WFOS broadcast radio class at the Chesapeake Center for Science and Technology.

This site is dedicated to honoring the memory of Robert G. Siff (Uncle Bob) 1919-2006.

Uncle Bob was a family man and US Navy veteran. He was an electronics enthusiast, businessman and innovator. Bob was involved in every aspect of ham radio. One of the founders of the Dayton Hamvention, the Sarasota Emergency Radio Club, the Sarasote power Squadron and the QCWA.

Uncle Bob was a political activist and supporter of the Sarasota Senior Center. His memory will live on through those that knew him and those that share his ideals.

Wakefield SKYWARN
Local Ham Clubs
The Wakefield SKYWARN Amateur Radio Support Team exists to help facilitate communication between Trained SKYWARN Spotters in the amateur radio community and the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Wakefield, Virginia.

The efficient collection of severe weather reports via amateur radio frees critical NWS staff from answering phones and allows them to focus on assessing weather scenarios and issuing appropriate warnings while still receiving necessary reports from Spotters in the field.

The Wakefield SKYWARN Amateur Radio Support Team exists to maintain and staff the amateur radio station at the National Weather Service Forecast Office, call sign WX4AKQ. The Team also continually works to grow and support a number of Trained Skywarn Net Control Stations who can run local subnets remotely and Trained Responders who can quickly and effectively operate WX4AKQ inside the Forecast Office.
