Biography

Who We Are

Right Fork Engineering (KR4IUM) is a small, laid‑back amateur radio club that started on Hall Mountain in Viper, Kentucky by (K4AVX/SK). The name comes from the Right Fork of Macies Creek, a place that’s home to a lot of tech‑savvy, radio‑minded people. We keep things simple: no dues, no politics, and no nonsense. We’re here to enjoy amateur radio, swap ideas, share old memories, and tinker with whatever projects come along. Our crew is a mix of DXers, contesters, builders, and folks who just like a good conversation — everybody brings their own style to the table.
