Visiting HAMs

The purpose of the station is to educate the public about wireless communication and amateur radio in particular. The station is thus the public out-reach arm of the Swedish Amateur Radio Union (SSA). We are located at the National Museum of Science and Technology and operate in close co-operation with the museum. The station is staffed by SSA volunteers.

As a visiting HAM you will have the opportunity to operate from the station but there are certain rules that will have to be observed.

  1. Operating from the station is only possible when the station is staffed by a SSA volunteer. Museum staff are not authorised to open the station or operate the equipment.
  2. All operating from the station is to performed under the supervision of the SSA volunteer on duty.
  3. Operations are limited by the SSA volunteer on duty license privileges. If the SSA volunteer on duty is a holder of a Swedish national entry level license the visiting HAM has to abide by the limitations of that license as well.
  4. Operation is only permitted using the SK0TM callsign. No QSOs is permitted using personal callsigns.
  5. SK0TM is not a RENT-a-QTH. It is a public out-reach and visitor station. Visiting HAMs do not have priority over visitors from the general public.

The station is normally open as follows:

  • Wednesday 17:00 – 20:00
  • Saturday & Sunday 11:00 – 17:00

All times are local.

SK0TM welcomes all HAMs and we hope you will enjoy yourself during your visit!
