On Tuesday, January 21, 2025, Dan, KB6NU spoke about the grant he received from ARDC and his experience over the course of 2024 teaching his one-day Tech class at hacker cons. He taught his class four times in all, and helped more than 100 “hackers” get their licenses.
He found that hacker cons are very fertile ground for amateur radio, and that many attendees already had amateur radio licenses. In addition, he felt that hackers are just the kind of people that we want in amateur radio. They are generally younger than the current ham population, and they are interested in doing more than just yakking on the radio.
