RCA donates station to Florida club

The Education Committee of the Radio Club of America says that it has received its first donation of a complete amateur radio station that will be given to the Lake Monroe Amateur Radio Club in Orlando, Florida.

The Lake Monroe Amateur Radio Club has a specially equipped trailer that it takes to schools to demonstrate amateur radio communications.

It also goes into schools and children's hospitals to demonstrate how to make contact with the International Space Station via ham radio.

The club says it's extremely grateful to The Radio Club of America for the donation of the much-needed equipment.
