Who is the McKinney Amateur Radio Club?
The McKinney Amateur Radio Club (MARC) is made up of approximately 75
locally licensed Amateur Radio operators and family members. The club
promotes education, community service and fellowship amongst the Amateur Radio
community. The club is affiliated with the
American
Radio Relay League as one of its Special Service Clubs.
The ARRL holds Special Service Clubs to a high standard of community service and
development of Amateur Radio as a hobby and public service.
MARC holds its regular monthly meeting on the second Tuesday of each
month at the American Red Cross located at 1450 North Redbud Blvd. in McKinney.
From the intersection of Hwys 75 and 380 (University Drive), travel east to
North Redbud (first traffic signal), and right on Redbud. The Red Cross building
is a half mile on your left. The meeting starts promptly at 7:00PM local time. A
short business meeting is followed by a presentation on a topic of interest to
the Amateur Radio membership. Past program topics have included Amateur Radio
Satellites, Amateur TV, Storm Chasing, Contesting, Antenna Design, QRP, and
Balloon Missions. To review past and future club programs
