Longmont Amateur Radio Club

Please join us on our Hamlet Net (for newer hams) at 7:00 pm tonight, Tuesday, July 14th!

Check-in begins at 7pm, and this net usually lasts 45 minutes to an hour or more.  See our repeater information on the left for more information.

The LARC July Monthly Meeting will be virtual again this month.  One change, we will be using Zoom this time instead of webex. 

Topic will be an open topic event. Think of it like a Net with a net controller and you get to talk about ham radio. 

Hope to see you there. Remember the meeting starts at 6:30pm with chat then the meeting.
