Steve Goodgame, K5ATA, Joins ARRL Headquarters Staff

09/16/2021

Steve Goodgame, K5ATA, of Batesville, Mississippi, has joined the staff at ARRL Headquarters in Newington, Connecticut, where he will serve as manager of the Education and Learning Department (formerly the Lifelong Learning Department). He had consulted for the department as an instructional designer and was instrumental in the implementation of ARRL’s Learning Network webinars.

Goodgame teaches middle school computer science and is in his second year of teaching amateur radio to students at his school. “I have been teaching ham radio in some form for 20 years,” he said. “Over the past 3 years, we have had close to 60 middle and high school students earn their licenses, and several have upgraded.” Goodgame’s favorite ham radio activity is activating parks in the Parks on the Air (POTA) program with his daughter Jherica, KI5HTA. His wife, Cyndi, is K5CYN. Goodgame hosts the K5ATA Ham Radio YouTube channel. He is a Volunteer Examiner and a volunteer firefighter.

ARRL Collegiate Amateur Radio Program – Monthly Web Meeting

Description

Campus radio clubs! Join us for ARRL’s monthly meeting of college and university amateur radio clubs, student leaders, and advisors.

Collegiate QSO Party

What is the Collegiate QSO Party?

The Collegiate QSO Party is an operating event focused on amateur radio clubs at colleges and universities around the world. Each Fall, the Collegiate QSO Party provides an opportunity for clubs to demonstrate amateur radio to new members, engage with alumni, and promote activity throughout college and university communities.

Who is this event for?

This event is open to all radio amateurs. Points can be earned by individuals, clubs, and collegiate stations. The Collegiate QSO Party encourages alumni to connect with their alma mater and students to network with other schools. New hams are welcome and stations are encouraged to be accommodating to new radio amateurs.

What is a “collegiate station?”

For the purposes of this event, a collegiate is defined as students, faculty, staff, or alumni operating under the callsign assigned to the club registered at the college, university or other post-secondary academic institute. Collegiate clubs may operate on campus in the club station or setup in a public area (with permission) or off campus. Alumni/Faculty/Staff without an active student club who wish to “activate” their school may do so with the permission of the trustee of the collegiate club callsign and compete in this category.

Current students at schools without an participating amateur radio club may compete under their own callsign. Points will apply as a club station.

Questions?

Be sure to check out the “Info Packet” PDF here for rules and more details on the Collegiate QSO Party.
