More Seats Available for On the Air Live

[https://learn.arrl.org/events?fbclid=IwY2xjawIR2WVleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHfyoPR_iXhWfuYMDs7pAQ8cxU1qFwied-wwmKxGFSjUf5dUD98KQsYoGjA_aem_Kmj-WoEu85-cNdUqbHksgQ]



Due to significant demand, ARRL has expanded the number of available spots
for this month's On the Air Live, an online training session linked to
content in the current issue of On the Air magazine. The program quickly
reached its original capacity. The live event will be hosted by ARRL
Education Specialist Wayne Greene, KB4DSF.

 
"It is a good problem to have," said ARRL Education and Learning Manager
Steve Goodgame, K5ATA. "We can easily add more capacity, and we're glad that
ARRL members are responding so positively to the concept," he said.


OTA Live is scheduled for February 25 at 8:00 PM EST and will be on the topic
of "How to Use Your Handheld Radio." Registration in advance is required [
https://learn.arrl.org/events?fbclid=IwY2xjawIR2WVleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHfyoPR_iXhWfuYMDs7pAQ8cxU1qFwied-wwmKxGFSjUf5dUD98KQsYoGjA_aem_Kmj-WoEu85-cNdUqbHksgQ
] , but is free for ARRL members. If you can't make the live event, a
recording will be available in the ARRL Learning Center [

DX Opportunities Abound Around ARRL International DX Contest

With Solar Cycle 25 still at peak conditions, and several popular contests
this time of year, there have been some interesting, if not totally rare, DX
opportunities on the HF bands. Spots have been flying on DX club email
reflectors this week. VK9XU on Christmas Island, V73WW on Marshall Island,
5N9DTG in Nigeria, KH7AL/KH9 on Wake Island, and 7Q2MM in Malawi have all
been noted, among many others.

 
The featured DXpedition timeline on DX-World.net [ https://www.dx-world.net/
] shows a number of interesting opportunities to add to the logbook totals in
the next several weeks. A full slate of operators is fanned out around the
world for the ARRL International DX Contest [
https://www.arrl.org/arrl-dx?utm_source=Informz&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=ARRL
] . The CW portion was this past weekend, and the phone weekend starts March
1 at 0000z.

 
"Getting on the air and being familiar with current propagation conditions is
a great way to prepare for contests," said ARRL Contest Program Manager Paul
Bourque, N1SFE. Contest activity is on an upward trend with the peaking solar
cycle. Bourque hopes more entrants brings an even higher level of excitement
to the contest. "Last year," he noted, "we saw a record number of logs
submitted. I hope even more operators participate this year. You don't have
to be a big gun to be part of it. Everyone is welcome, hopefully the solar
cycle will give even modest stations like mine access to a global playing
field."

YLRL Scholarships Available for Students

[https://ylrl.net/]


The Young Ladies Radio League (YLRL) has announced its Memorial Scholarship
program for 2025. The scholarship program is aimed at female amateur radio
operators studying radio, communications, electronics or amateur radio
related arts and sciences.


There are three Memorial Scholarship award categories:

"YLRL is committed to investing in women in amateur radio, and we believe
that every act of volunteerism through amateur radio, even a small one, helps
turn the world into a better place," said Vicki Zumwalt, N6KLS, President of
YLRL. "We hope that our scholarships will not only encourage students to
learn more about science, technology, and engineering but also inspire them
to take pride in being an amateur radio operator and to encourage others to
do so as well."


The YLRL believes that education in the fields or radio, communications,
electronics, and amateur-related arts and sciences will play an important
role in shaping the world's future. Through these memorial scholarships, YLRL
hopes to encourage female students to learn more about amateur radio.


To qualify, students must be female, have an amateur radio license, meet the
requirements listed on the YLRL website [ https://ylrl.net/ ] and apply using

High School and a Sci-Fi Movie Spark Interest in Amateur Radio

Steve Schickel was a young high school student in the late '80s and was
introduced to amateur radio through his electronics classes. He also spent
time working at a local RadioShack and watching science fiction movies at a
nearby theater in his hometown of Pensacola, Florida.

 
Amateur radio's next biggest influence on Steve came in 1997, on opening
night of the movie "Contact [ https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/686-contact ]
," about a scientist who finds evidence of extraterrestrial life and is
chosen to make first contact.

 
"I remember the entire theater erupted when, in the opening scene, amateur
radio operator K4WLD responded to a call from W9GFO and stated his location
was Pensacola," said Schickel. "It sounded like the home team had scored in
overtime to win the game; it was so loud!

 
Fast-forward to November 2024. Schickel passed the exam for his Technician
license and was assigned KQ4YXP on November 11. Then he passed his General
license exam and on November 29 changed his to callsign to KQ4ZDR and then
again to KZ4OW. After a month of study, he passed his Extra Class license
exam. But there was still something missing from his newfound amateur radio
hobby.

 
"To celebrate, I started researching vanity call signs in order to try and
reward myself with a 1x2 call sign. I researched everything that had become
available, and I was just about to file my application with the FCC with a
list of about a dozen 1x2 calls when I paused and wondered if anybody
actually had the call sign K4WLD from the movie."

 
It turned out K4WLD had just fallen out of a two-year grace period hold a
couple weeks prior and was now available. Schickel submitted his vanity
application and on January 11, 2025, was assigned the new call of K4WLD.

 
"I can proudly say that K4WLD was awarded to me in January 2025, and I still
live in Pensacola! Now, life is imitating art," Schickel concluded, "and
K4WLD has come home to Pensacola in real life ... just like in the movie."

 
All well and good except for one small detail. Most of his equipment has been
on back order for several months! Schickel hopes to make his first "contact"
in a few weeks. He is also a proud new ARRL member!

In Brief...

Greg Lee, KI6GIG, has shared information about the Grassroots Emergency
Communications Operations [ http://www.neighborhoodlink.com/GECO ] (GECO) in
Arizona. GECO is a free grassroots community-powered disaster recovery
program for amateur radio operators and amateur radio emergency
communicators, especially in marginalized communities without emergency
plans. The group's free software offers basic information and encourages
local organizers to consider two enhancements:

�-�Adding amateur radio communications, both radio and non-radio methods
�-�Using community-based education to integrate indigenous knowledge and
emergency preparedness with STEM/STEAM/STEAMING classroom lessons


The information is designed to improve local education, enhance relevant and
practical knowledge/skills/experience to develop a preparedness mindset, and
cultivate future generations of emergency service volunteers and workers to
aid in local economic development. For additional information contact Greg
Lee via email at gecoradio@gmail.com [ mailto:gecoradio@gmail.com ] .


Announcements

North American QSO Party (NAQP) RTTY 2025 will be in full operation Saturday,
February 22, 1800 UTC through Sunday, February 23, 0559 UTC. The North
American QSO Parties are favorites of beginners and seasoned operators alike.
The NAQPs are low-power only, no amplifiers allowed, which makes for a lot
more breathing room on the bands. Small stations can generate very effective
"runs" in the NAQP contests. Multipliers count once per band, which makes for
an exciting format, as multipliers can be "moved" from band to band. The
NAQPs allow stations from all parts of North America to be in the running for
the top spots. The 12-hour format allows participants to do some great
contesting, yet still have time for other activities during the weekend.
Participants may enter in the single-op or multi-op categories, and they also
have the opportunity to combine up to five separate single-op scores into a
team score. For complete rules and log information, visit 2025 North American
QSO Pa
