2016 Update

We are still here, not much to post. Tower was removed from CH19 by the university before paint could be applied about a year ago, after the top section rusted through the previous year's paint. The repeater atop the hospital remains in that location, but since access requests have been denied, the repeater has been taken off the air (turned off) until an emergency results in the necessary access being provisioned. Steps are underway to move the repeater to an area that is under campus control due to necessary changes as a result of effective building ownership.

As always, a human can be reached at hamradio@uab.edu. We encourage membership, but much like the Freemasons, if you want to be one, you have to reach out and make first contact.
