Know Before You Visit
Confirm meetings and access with the club. Activity labels describe our evidence, not live availability.
Coverage, Activity Labels and Source Reviews
Browse 2,803 records across all 50 states. Most come from ARRL’s affiliated-club directory; 53 clubs have additional official-site research. This is not a complete census of every active club. Duplicate listings and gaps may remain.
Recent dated evidence includes published club events and announcements, not confirmed attendance. A directory listing alone does not establish current activity. City listings are location hints, not service-area boundaries. Repeater and node details are published information, not live status.
Sources are reviewed on a 90-day cycle. Dates remain beside each listing, and overdue reviews are labeled. Contact the club to confirm meetings, access and current settings. Search the original ARRL directory.

Finding amateur radio clubs: common questions
How do I find an amateur radio club near me instead of just in my state?
Select your state, then use the listed city or region and official club website to narrow the results. Statewide listings and coordinator regions do not establish a club's service boundary.
How can I check whether a ham radio club is active and welcoming newcomers?
Review the activity evidence and official website, then look for recent meetings or events and contact the club. Ask about beginner mentoring and visitor arrangements rather than assuming an older listing confirms current availability.
