The WB0CAP Youth Amateur Radio Club is an ARRL Affiliated Youth Club.  The club consists primarily of young adults, most of which are involved in Civil Air Patrol.  The primary purpose of the club to introduce Amateur Radio to young adults throughout the community in the greater Omaha Metropolitan Area, including Civil Air Patrol, Scouting, and local schools. 

We hope to achieve our goals by showing our young audience how communications and technology is an invaluable asset in areas  such as  the aerospace industry, disaster services and search and rescue.  This will include demonstration of practical applications of technologies such as digital and satellite communications, direction finding, and land navigation using GPS.  At the same time, we hope to inspire these young adults and provide training and education allowing them to pursue an amateur radio license while promoting the importance of public service. 

We are looking for amateur radio operators that can help by providing presentations, help with classes, or serving as a control operator during special events such as Kids Day and Scouting's JOTA.  If you are interested in donating equipment or your time, please contact us.
