JeffCo Amateur Radio Club Celebrates 75 Years With ARRL:

“CQ, CQ, CQ calling\&” If one were in Nederland on a particular street in a particular building at a particular time, one may have heard this general call being made by an amateur radio operator on Saturday. The Jefferson County Amateur Radio Club (JCARC) celebrates the 75th anniversary of its affiliation with the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) Saturday and Sunday. The public is invited to learn about amateur, or ham, radio at the event, where club members come together and talk about their shared love of ham radio. “It’s our 75th anniversary with the ARRL. The club’s been affiliated with them since 1941,” Kirk Mahaney, Vice President of the JCARC, said. “It used to be known as the Port Arthur Radio Club before switching over to Jefferson County.”
