VOICE OF AMERICA MUSEUM TO EXTEND HOURS FOR HAMVENTION

The National Voice of America Museum of Broadcasting is welcoming Hamvention guests by offering extended hours from Thursday May 14th through to Sunday May 17th. The museum and the West Chester Amateur Radio Association, which is headquartered there, will be sharing a wide variety of exhibits that include a disc jockey's setup from a vintage radio station, vintage ham and shortwave equipment and the Voice of America's first transmitter, dating from 1942. The club's ham radio station, WC8VOA, will be sharing access to its shack - so come with your license and be prepared to get on the air. Admission is $10 at the door. For each day's extended hours and for directions on how to find the museum from Xenia, visit the website voamuseum.org or wc8voa.org

The independent, nonprofit museum in West Chester, Ohio, is not affiliated with the US government's Voice of America service.
