The first radio station at Michigan State University was established through the efforts of the Amateur Radio Club in 1919 using the call letters of 8YG - broadcasting weather reports and farm market prices. In 1925 8YG became WKAR, the public broadcast station of Michigan State University, while a ham radio station was formed using the call letters 8XBU. In 1927 the call 8SH was issued to the amateur radio station. Today the MSU Amateur Radio Club operates W8SH and W8MSU from the campus in East Lansing.Please see our main website for more information on who we are, what we do, how to become a member, and about HAM radio in general: MSU Amateur Radio Club – Amateur Radio at Michigan State UniversityYou can also join our Discord page: https://discord.gg/Ze6U4Mz7We would be happy to answer any questions you may have, and club members are frequently willing to meet and give tours of our 'shack' in Engineering Building room 2121.
