although Roca Radio Club prepares new courses After being introduced to the exciting world of radio broadcasting, its two youngest partners became Argentina’s representatives in the world. this is about Bianca Montenegrohe did the same thing at Yota Américas training camp in July 2024 Emiliano Gutiérrez of Halifax, Canada, will travel to PragueThe Czech Republic participated in the 12th YOTA training camp in Region 1 of IARU (International Amateur Radio Union), Starting next Friday the 16th.

La sigla YOTA (Youth is Playing), “Youth in the Air” in Spanish refers to a program for young radio amateurs in the Americasdeveloped by members of the same age group who seek to enrich the “radio experience” of participants, venture into lBuild kit, antenna, set up satellite operationsspecial event stops, and other suggestions, all for the purpose of networking with others cultivating the same career in different countries.

These partners of Roca Agency, Bianca, 23, and Emiliano, 30, traveled successfully with the support and management of the Argentine Radio Clubthis framework makes them even more important as representatives of Patagonians in these international events. the reach of the network of people close to the environment and Specifically the calls generated by RadioClub LU3VALwere exposed in these cases because they were members from elsewhere but chose to register here, in the San Cayetano Community Entity.

Bianca is from Neuquecentenario, while Emiliano is linked to Porto Blancawho is also the president of local racing team RC Grupo DX. “I started working there at 12 o’clock, but one day I was invited by LU3VAL President Alejando Rocca and Secretary Marina Díaz to get to know the institution. From that moment I asked to be admitted, mainly because I saw great management there. It is one of the most influential radio clubs In this hobby – the science and the people who work there do a lot for the activity and the community. It needs to be emphasized that this is an honorary task that requires time, but Alejandro, Marina and RC Roca are all references at national and regional level,” Emiliano revealed.

Similar things have happened Bianca shares the environment with those closest to her as her parents and sister also practice this knowledge and she has a valid license. Despite her “colleagues” in Neuquén, she valued Roque’s friendship and the large number of proposals organized by the committee. “I often accompany my parents to Lejiauntil one day I attended an information session about amateur radio courses and they convinced me to do it,” he laughs. From that point on, our relationship became almost like an extended family, with frequent face-to-face visits. “We go two or three times a monthnot only because my dad is the lecturer on the satellite topic on the course, but they are both on the board of directors, and we also do cleaning and repairs at the club, so we are close every time we have to. We also usually organize barbecues or dinner parties on national holidays or holidays, so we attend those special dates as well,” he shared.

Be aware of the realities and challenges facing amateur radioboth are involved in the changes that this generation is going through. In her personal life, she is completing a degree in English Translation and Emiliano almost got his M.S.after obtaining a degree in economics and a PhD, but at the same time they lead and promote ideas so that the social role of the activity remains valid.

It is difficult to find members under the age of 35 on the Radio Club’s board of directors.it can be frustrating, but I also think we have to adapt to new technology and understand the hobby – science has a lot to show, and there is a need to harness it and communicate it to the community. Before, when I was born, the community went to RC to respond to needs: Communicate with relatives, ask for medicine, etc. Today it’s just the opposite“The RC must go out into the community to demonstrate its institutional role, and the situation must be understood to prevent the activity from disappearing,” said Baian, who spearheaded the youth sector of the proposal.

In your opinion, Contact as a first method, for example with a technical schoolwhich is more than helpful. “This is what happened to us in Bahia when we managed to get university students enrolled. “People bring people,” admits the young man.

Bianca is a member of the Argentine Radio Club and President of the YOTA Committee (youth) of the entity, so it also participates in the national activities organized by them. “It seems like it’s just an adult hobby, but once you get into it, you realize how diverse it is. I confirmed this during my trip to Canada, with kids of all ages from Korea, France, Austria, the United States and Canada. Among them are people with hearing impairments, people on the autism spectrum, and people from the LGTBQ+ community. I felt very welcome and included in the club, which is why we have to make it visible and let people know that although this space is also mainly occupied by adults and men, there are also many radio amateurs for women and young girls It’s important to encourage more people to try it,” concluded the woman from Neuquen.

I feel very satisfied to have such a member, They seek more from rock institutions. yes Open registration Suitable for newcomers interested in an introductory course, no prior experience or knowledge is required. There will be teaching every Saturday, From 4pm to 7pm on September 14th for three months.
