285 TechConnect Radio Club — NAØTC

The 285 TechConnect Radio Club - NAØTC was formed in 2006 by Steve - AIØW, Jim - KAØNZZ, and Nancy - KØNNC to provide a forum for technical discussions, presentations, and projects. We are an ARRL Affiliated Club.

We want to provide a wide-range of learning for people interested in the technical and operating areas of ham radio to increase knowledge and license levels and provide a forum for technical learning and sharing of information. Everyone is welcome!

For those who missed the TechFest, or would like to revisit the topics, please visit the TechFest page, where you can find the slides, videos, and a YouTube playlist for all the videos.

Please join us every Tuesday evening at 7PM on the CRA 145.145 repeater for the TechNet on-air discussion.
