Installing a mobile radio in your vehicle can be a challenging but rewarding project. Using examples from his own installations, Zachary Sherman, KC1NXK, will demonstrate techniques for cleanly installing mobile radios and other electronic accessories in vehicles. After the meeting, in-person attendees are encouraged to take a hands-on look at Zachary’s radio installation.
Bio: Long before he heard of amateur radio, Zachary enjoyed playing with FRS walkie-talkies with friends. Sent home from Olin College due to Covid, he became a Technician licensee in September 2020. Zachary soon became a co-leader of the Olin Collegiate Amateur Radio Club, helping students earn their radio licenses then volunteer for public service events. Zachary graduated in 2023 as a mechanical engineer and now works at IVIVA Medical, helping to design a bioartificial kidney. Zachary enjoys community events at NEST, making contacts via the ISS repeater, studying for his General license test, and of course working on his mobile radio installation. He is currently president of STARS.
Please note: Zachary will be presenting in person at NEST, but you can also choose to participate over Zoom, as always.
