Hello, if you are looking me up because you heard me and was not able to
contact me please e-mail me at kd8cdp@yahoo.com . I am sixteen years old, I’m
in the tenth grade at Jefferson High School.
I started into ham Radio three years ago and have had a ball. I took the test
on Sep. 10 and became effective on Sep. 23 2005. I enjoy seeing that some folks
are interested in getting kids into ham radio. I have started a program here in
S.E. Mi. called Hamkids. You will find my site at http://www.hamkids.com .I was
shocked that not many kids are into this hobby. My dad (Kd8bus) and I have went
right to work to change that. We would like to work with people all over to
start a larger project for kids in the Amateur Radio world. We need your help,
and anyone else that would be interested.
Hamkids was created in effort to recruit young people to Amateur Radio, and to
give seasoned radio operators a chance to help train and mentor the young
amateur radio operators along there way in developing proficient radio
operating skills. Hamkids is not just for kids, it is for anyone, any age to
get involved in the movement to recruit more youth to Amateur Radio. The future
of everything is in the youth. Please help pass Amateur Radio on to the future.
Also pass as much knowledge as you can.

We have the Hamkids Amateur Radio Net each Wednesday at 7:30 pm local time on
the 72 Monroe 146.720, K8rpt repeater, with 100 hz pl. tone. Main Net Control
is Gordie Kd8cdp. We also need some youth to participate as Net Control.
We also have the Hamkids Planning Meeting on Tuesday nights, at 8:00 pm local
time on Echolink. To participate in the planning meeting just connect to Kd8bus
node. Everyone can and also is encourage to participate.
I would also like to tell you about another great program, ARMAD. ARMAD is a
special event in Amateur Radio. ARMAD stands for Amateur Radio Military
Appreciation Day. Amateur Radio Operators from around the world join together
in various places across the nation during this event in effort to allow the
people from our communities to gather at public locations and give live verbal
positive support to our Military. You can find ARMAD at http://www.armad.net .
Start an ARMAD event near you!
