World explorers: WCS students travel across radio waves

The Globe reports the U.S., Canada, Central America and Europe represent
just a handful of global locations Worthington Christian School students
have been able to explore with no passport required

Using radio frequency technology, WCS students have made contact with
hundreds of people across the world by way of radio waves.

“You get to know people you wouldn’t otherwise know,� said WCS fifth-grader
Cali Visser of her experience transmitting shortwave radio signals.

Led by longtime amateur radioer Randy Shirbroun ND0C, students interested
in learning about amateur (ham) radio have had several hands-on experiences
over the past two years during both casual and organized radio operating
events via the school’s club station, W0WCS.

An antenna supported by a portable telescoping mast on the front of the
school allows students to operate from their temporary station located in
the school’s library.

This week, more than half a dozen students stayed after school to travel
across the radio dial. In approximately 30 minutes, they made contact with
six people across the country. Students asked each connection where they
were from and what the weather was like.
