It will not be at Los Bravos. We used to have our Friday lunches at a bistro in Chamblee, but it was closed on the Friday after Thanksgiving. So we used to pick another restaurant to go to for just that Friday. We're continuing the tradition. Come join us for lunch. Our events are always open to EVERYONE. The food is good, the talk is great. The Tech-UGA game will have been played the night before so there should be plenty to talk about. 2024 Holiday Party

We helped a ham whose license expired in the 1980s. He was a Technician then, which is equivalent to a General today. He took and passed the Technician test and will be reinstated with a General license. He was pretty happy. WORKED ALL GEORGIA AWARDThe Atlanta Radio Club, with the support of the Georgia Section of the ARRL, is proud to support the "Worked All Georgia" Award. The WAG Award is open to radio amateurs who can provide proof of two-way radio amateur radio contact with all 159 counties in the state of Georgia. This award is nice complement to the annual Georgia QSO Party, which in fact would be a good time to work on some of those hard-to-get counties. The award is embodied in a nice certificate.
More information can be found here. NETSEvery Sunday night - 8:00 PM ET

In 2010, Dallas Jones (VK3DJ) from Drysdale, Victoria in Australia visited the United States to meet some friends he met on the air.
