Kids Day at KH6LC is a Big Deal on the Big Island

Posted date: January 19, 2015in: NewsNo Comments

“Lloyd Cabral, KH6LC, lives on the Big Island of Hawaii, and each January he doesKids Day in a big way. Twice a year, in January and June, ARRL offers Kids Day to promote Amateur Radio to youngsters who may become Amateur Radio’s next generation. Since retiring 11 years ago, Cabral has focused on HF contesting, and every January he adapts his multioperator station for Kids Day, pairing the youngsters with seasoned veteran operators, or “coaches,” who help them make contacts. The result is a Kids Day the young people will remember.”
