Palomar Amateur Radio Club STEM Experimentation Lab
The STEM Experimentation Lab's purpose is to provide the community with access to resources for
education and experimentation that leverages the unique features of the PARC site on Palomar Mountain.
The Lab features multiple Software Defined Radios (SDR) that are accessible to its users over the internet.
These provide signal data that can be used for demonstrations, learning exercises and experimentation.
The Lab offers a unique capability by providing access to HF, VHF and UHF signals with multiple SDRs for multiple user from anywhere there is internet access.
This equipment will be used to facilitate STEM awareness, education and training for members and the greater San Diego area community. Educational material is available online for members, schools and the general public.
The STEM Experimentation lab was built by PARC member volunteers as a part of the 2022/2023 PARC Modernization Project.
OpenWebRX+ is an SDR server application that runs entirely in the user's browser. No additional software is required.
