AARC to celebrate its 90th year in 2009!
 
  The Austin Amateur Radio club was first chartered in December of 1919, shortly after ham radio was allowed back on the air after being shut down during WWI. The club plans to have celebrate the event throughout the year leading up to our birthday party in December. Watch for stories in the newsletter and announcements as events are planned. What a great year to be a member of a great club!
