About:
Back in 1932, a group of 15 amateurs decided to form an Amateur Radio Club. It was the first of its kind in Marquette County, known as the Marquette Radio Assn. In 1933, they became chartered with the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and were renamed the Hiawatha Amateur Radio Association of Marquette County. The club has the original charter as well as a certificate acknowledging 50 years of ARRL affiliation.

Visiting for the first time?

Clubs welcome unlicensed visitors. You do not need a callsign, a radio, or any experience to attend a meeting — bring your questions and someone will happily answer them.

  • Message the club before you go so someone can look out for you.
  • Ask whether they run a training class or exam session.
  • Ask about their weekly net — you can listen to one before you ever transmit.
