The purpose of the Ashe County Amateur Radio Club is to promote fellowship and good will in the Radio Amateur Community and to provide communications in times of emergency for our community, our state and country and even the world through the Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES). We help with training and provide testing for Amateur Radio licenses through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Volunteer Examiner (VE) program. Tests by our VE team for all 3 classes of Amateur Radio licenses are made available as requested for new applicants and to upgrade existing licenses.

Anyone with an interest in Amateur Radio is invited to attend our meetings even if you do not presently hold a license. If you have any questions, please reach out to any of our club officers for information concerning the club or the Amateur Radio community.
