W7ASU QSL Card Welcome to W7ASU, the Amateur Radio Society at Arizona State University. The club consists of about 30 members who are interested in ham radio and the surrounding activities. W7ASU does not currently have a ham shack located on campus due to university space constraints. Although the club has a very limited budget and only boat anchors for equipment, we still try to participate in several club activities during the semester. Currently, the club enjoys collecting fares at local hamfests (fundraising!), participating in public service events, contesting, and educating the public about ham radio.



Walter Cronkite, KB2GSD (SK): 1916-2009


Most people knew him as "the most trusted man in America". Some knew he had very close ties to Arizona State University with the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication being named after him. But how many people knew he was an amateur radio operator?

Cheering for Amateur Radio

We like to consider this photo as proof that "Chicks dig amateur radio!" While gathering before the upcoming football game, a group of ladies from the ASU Sun Devil Dance Team stopped by to watch W7ASU operate in the 2004 Collegiate QSO Party. No doubt impressed by our smooth (contest) operating techniques, we expect these ladies will be licensed in the near future. We just can't wait until they join our club! Chicks dig amateur radio!
As ex-club member KK7KX once said, "Chicks dig amateur radio!" Turns out he was right! (Seated: KC7MOD and KD7LGH. Background: Six members of the Sun Devil Dance Team.)
