Radio Wave Wizardry
315 Elm Building (near 283 Victoria Road) Asheville - Buncombe Tech Comm. College Asheville
North Carolina 28804
OPEN FRIDAYS & SATURDAYS FROM 1 TO 3 PM, DURING JUNE THROUGH NOVEMBER
Opened to the public in 2001 by a small group of amateur radio operators, we have evolved from being a collection into a teaching museum, where people of all ages can learn about the history of radio technology and wonder at the equipment and how it evolved. Our mission is:
-
To foster an understanding of the technology and history of amateur and commercial radio development and an appreciation of the impact this has had.
-
By collecting and preserving radio equipment, advertising and other memorabilia, in an education-oriented museum, with hands-on displays and a working ham station
-
And, through outreach, offering education programs and tours for interested students.
-
In doing so, stimulate student interest in science, technology and engineering (STEM).
We provide free admission, made possible by our small group of volunteers. It will help tremendously if you can make a small contribution to support our work. If so, please click the Donate button (below). Thank you!
