The Mike and Key Amateur Radio Club
is a Seattle, Washington (USA) area organization devoted
to all aspects of Amateur Radio Operation.
The club focus is helping the community through training
our members and practicing our skills through Public
Service.
This document is intended
as an introduction to the Club for new and relocated
Amateur Radio Operators in the area as well as a guide
for prospective members.
All information is subject to change and provided with
no guarantee of accuracy. (But we do our best to
keep it up-to-date)
THE CLUB
The Mike and Key Amateur Radio Club was
initially founded in 1963 under "Pop" Brown, K7LED, and
was in existence for 5 years before disbanding due to a
lack of activity. In 1970, it was reorganized and has
remained as one of the most active and viable Radio
Clubs in the Seattle area for over thirty five years.
Activity in the Club is as varied as
the hobby of Amateur Radio itself. Within the
Club there are groups that engage in Public Service,
Contesting, DX, VHF/UHF, SSB, CW,
Construction/Experimentation, Packet, and Traffic
Handling. While the Club cannot be everything to
everybody, it does provide a base of support for most
radio interests.
Within the membership are many of the
prominent "doers" and "shakers" of Pacific Northwest
Amateur Radio. Members are encouraged to be "active" in
the Hobby, the Club, and the Community.
