Welcome to the homepage of the Southampton University Wireless Society - home of the Southampton Open Wireless Network, the University's Amateur Radio Club and all things related to radio/wireless communications.

Freshers 2011

We have two introductory meetings planned in the next few weeks as a chance for anyone to find out more about the activities of the society.

RSS and ... further results feeds are available for all our events.

SOWN (Southampton Open Wireless Network) is a Wireless Networking project which aims to build a free-to-use wireless network in Southampton, UK.

Current activities include IPv6 and 802.1x deployment on our Community-Wide WiFi network as well as VoIP and Mesh networking.

G3KMI-logo-simple-w270.png

G3KMI is the University Amateur Radio Club station. The Club is returning after more than 10 years of inactivity. We are helping anybody interested in the hobby of Amateur Radio to get involved.

Amateur Radio is a hobby that involves using high-power radio communication equipment to talk to people that could be on the other side of the world. You can build and modify your own kit and even send TV pictures! A license is required to operate without supervision, however we will be very happy to support anyone in pursuit of this.
