Phil Petersen's Story Book available!

For years, Phil Petersen, W2DME (SK), had a radio program where he related interesting amateur-related stories. These tales have been transcribed into a 91 page booklet entitled "The World of Amateur Radio" and are now available from the chapter for $20.00. Contact our President, Bernie WB2EJT , or Secretary, Bob Buus W2OD to get a copy.



Visit the Information Age Learning Center Site. The Center is being established at the soon-to-be-former Camp Evans and what was Marconi's commercial receiving station. This is to be the focal point of preservation and interpretation of New Jersey's rich communication, computers, electronics, radio, radar, satellite, and telephony history.
