Abstract

Although the Cadet Amateur Radio Club, callsign W2KGY, boasts the title of ‘Oldest Cadet Club’ since its founding in 1926, it leads cutting-edge innovation on radioscience and sport. The club develops technically adept leaders of character trained on military equipment while maintaining a developmental culture from its amateur background. This poster showcases past accomplishments of the club and presents its future plans as a cornerstone of electromagnetic warfare training for the Corps of Cadets. Further, the poster demonstrates the club’s usefulness to the academy as a research testbed for satellite operation and propagation studies.
