Museum Jan Corver
|
 |
|
Despite the fact that radio amateurism is over 100 years old,
this hobby is still very much alive. About 15,000 people in The Netherlands
have a radio ham licence. Both technology and legal aspects of the hobby
have changed and evolved significantly over the years. The many aspects
of this fascinating hobby are highlighted in this museum, which now even
has a DIY corner for the youngest soon-to-be amateurs.
The museum was named after one of the earliest radio pioneers: Jan Corver.
The building is which the museum is located is itself worth seeing: it was used for
many years at the artificial island Neeltje Jans during the realisation of the
ambitious Delta Works in The Netherlands.
