Amateur radio, is a noncommercial, licensed system of communication, and is as old as the medium of radio itself. Ham radio is a hobby to most participants, but hams are best known for the emergency communications they provide during disasters. Hams are licensed by their government to communicate both domestically and internationally on a wide variety of radio bands.

Please take the time to explore this site, and the many activities of the Clark County Amateur Radio Club.

See what Field Day was like at our W7AIA location! We had a UNIQUE antenna!
