Hello, my name is Jim Pitman, WA6MZV.
I am the station manager of the United Radio Amateur Club's ham station, K6AA.
The station is located at the Los Angeles Maritime Museum. We operate 5 days a week; closed on Sundays and Mondays. We work the radios, but there is also a lot of interaction with the public. Individuals, school and other groups, tour the museum and stop at the station. This gives us an excellent opportunity to familiarize the public with what Ham radio is all about. Both, by explaining it to them and by demonstrating the various modes that we use at K6AA. We have visitors from all over the world, and it is great to be able to chat and learn more about them. Hams from around the country and the world are frequent visitors to the station. New Ham buddies are often developed. Hams that I've met on the air stop in at the museum to visit, several are from other countries.
