American Legion Amateur Radio Club

Our meetings are held at the Post at 8:30 AM every Wednesday where we meet as an organized group to promote the interest in Amateur Radio communication and experimentation and education, for the establishment of emergency communications in the event of disasters or other emergencies, for the advancement of the radio art and the public welfare, for the representation of the radio amateur in legislative matters, and for the maintenance of collegiality and a high standard of conduct.  All citizens are welcome to join us for learning more about Amateur Radio Operations.

History:

Slightly over a decade ago in early fall 2010, five licensed amateur radio operators, all employees of National Headquarters, felt there was a need and truly a place for amateur radio within the organization. Relying on guidance from Legionnaires in the California American Legion Amateur Radio Service (CALARS), the National Headquarters group developed the structure of and formal justification of need for a national program. That led to the sanction of The American Legion Amateur Radio Club (TALARC) by the National Executive Committee in May 2011.
