James Ervin is a student leader and RF-focused engineer with a decade of hands-on experience in amateur radio, club leadership, and aerospace education. Based in Austin and studying at Texas A&M, he serves as President of W5AC while leading technical education and a 12-person research effort to make 1.2 GHz propagation measurement tools affordable and accessible. His background spans mentoring at NASA programs, growing and advising student radio clubs, and organizing cross-club events and emergency-communications training. Comfortable bridging technical work and community-building, he has secured industry sponsorships and taught peers to design and homebrew radio equipment. James blends practical RF systems know-how with program management and outreach, and he jokes about “pretending to know git” while working toward advanced aerospace skills. His callsign KI5UXW and sustained volunteer record reflect a deep commitment to hands-on learning and public service in the RF and space communities.
