These are the programs a volunteer is most likely to be asked to help with. Each has its own page on the site with the full detail; this is the tour.
Club Week — November 1 to 8
A national, week-long, on-the-air celebration of clubs. Clubs contact each other and exchange QSL cards, set up in public places and give newer operators an easy, friendly reason to pick up a microphone. It is not a contest: there are no points and no logs to submit.
The State of Amateur Radio Survey
The most in-depth study we know of into operator habits, licensing, club participation and the health of the hobby. The point is to argue about amateur radio with numbers instead of anecdotes.
Regional Club Councils
Clubs grouped by state and region so club leaders can work together instead of separately. Each council has a representative, and the council directory lets anyone find the one covering their county.
The National Presenters Panel
A directory of members who will speak to clubs, in person or over video. A club books a presenter through the site and the presenter answers through their own portal.
Awards
The Alfred Vail 20-20 Young Keyers Award recognizes operators under twenty who can work at twenty words per minute or better. Excellence in Amateur Radio recognizes outstanding contribution to the service. Both are applied for through the site and reviewed by volunteers.
The club database and the wiki
A national club directory with a searchable map, kept current by club officers and by our representatives, and a community-maintained amateur radio wiki at wiki.usnara.org. Between them they are the most-used part of our site, and both live or die by volunteer attention.
The hamfest map and the NARA calendar
A searchable map of upcoming hamfests and club events, and a curated calendar of our own public meetings, operating events, observances and the hamfests we will have a table at.
