Kaitlyn began her ham radio journey a few years ago as a way to learn about radio technology. She has since fully embraced the hobby. Her primary focus of radio technology involves ground-to-space communications and reverse engineering protocols.

Albert Goto

As children, Albert and his sister soldered away helping their dad assemble various Heathkit radios, but it would take a research project decades later to bring Albert back to the hobby. Now, Albert enjoys helping the EECS amateur radio classes at UC Berkeley and running their weekly net and exams. Albert is a member of ACS, assists with NERT's NCT classes, and is relentlessly badgering people to get their license or an upgrade.

Harry’s fascination with all things radio-related started at an early age. He was first licensed in the mid-1970s, earning his general class at thirteen. Harry also spent seven years as a first responder during which time he was “on the air” every shift. These days Harry particularly enjoys HF including firing up his vintage tube Tempo One.
