The East Alabama Amateur Radio Club ("EAARC") website will provide you with an online introduction to our Club if you haven't met us yet. The website provides timely notice of upcoming events, informative and educational pages and weblinks (which will be a resource for your amateur radio study and testing), and otherwise serves as a resource for anyone interested or active in the ham radio hobby. Our goal for the website is to create a modern, user-friendly, informative, and intuitive web presence for The Club. We welcome your interaction and suggestions! Feel free to provide suggestions for additions or changes to our website using the "CONTACT US" feature below. Send other questions or comments as well! If we haven't already, we hope to meet you soon!
We love ham radio enthusiasts, so feel free to visit our next meeting to get to know us better. You don't need to be a member to come. You don't need to be licensed to join a meeting. Even if you are just curious about ham radio, come by! The meetings are relaxed, informative, and fun.
