Kings’ Point Amateur Radio Club

September 29, 1983: the SUN carried an article “KP moves closer to Amateur Radio Newsletter Station.”, written by Jeannine Mjoseth. The first paragraph reads,

“What recourse would Kings Point have if a hurricane or tornado blew down telephone lines?  If the new Disaster System gains the necessary finance, Kings Pointers could turn to a corps of radio operators to save lives, said Bob Gordon, head of the Emergency Communications Committee”.

With the Club’s shack located in the Kings’ Point main building you can fin someone at the shack almost everyday with the big day being Thursday.
