Welcome to the
Blue Ridge Amateur Radio Club!
The Blue Ridge Amateur Radio Club is open to all persons interested in Ham Radio communications. There is no requirement to be licensed to become a member. We meet monthly on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm at 801 Glover St., Hendersonville. The address is in Jackson Park and we meet in the large brick “house” above the tennis courts. We strive to present programs of interest at each meeting, covering a wide range of radio topics from A-amperes through Z-impedance. We cordially invite you to visit us and to become a member. Click here for more details. (Note: We normally do not meet in December, but rather have a holiday dinner on our regular meeting night. However, due to the health crisis, the club voted to not have a holiday dinner in 2020. We will instead have our regular online Zoom meeting on the 1st Tuesday.)
Note: All Blue Ridge Amateur Radio Club (BRARC) formal meetings will be virtual until the pandemic is over. Anyone is welcome to join our monthly meetings – see below for instructions.
