Clubs

Local community groups, clubs, and similar organizations which promote the interests of, or answer the needs of amateur radio, the local amateur radio community, and the local general community. These organizations usually represent individual members and very rarely host smaller affiliated groups; often these sections are affiliates of larger, regional organizations. Suggestions for sites to be listed are encouraged via the "add URL" label at page top.

Please suggest sites of local sections, clubs and other groups which represent individual amateur radio members, and which do not fit under the listed national/regional affiliates.

Thanks!

National Traffic System

The National traffic System (NTS) has served as a backbone network for the relay and, ultimately, delivery of text-based messages across the United States and beyond by amateur radio. Organized by the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) in 1914, the NTS is purposed with the efficient and accurate delivery of message traffic following the Radiogram format. Collected within this category is a listing of websites devoted to the networks. Whether VHF (local) or HF (state-wide and regional), these affiliations of traffic handlers are responsible for ensuring the timely and reliable relay and delivery of hundreds to thousands of messages each day.

Submissions to this category are limited to websites devoted to the various regional and local traffic networks. Unless a site is primarily devoted to the topic of traffic origination, handling and delivery, DO NOT submit personal or club sites. Please visit those categories to recommend them.

All sites must be available in English.
