Hi
Welcome to the web site of the Mississippi Coast Amateur Radio Association.

Our purpose is to promote amateur radio involvement and growth. We work toward this through on the air activity, enjoyable fellowship, public awareness, and through education and training.

We will be offering many opportunities in the year to come for this and hope, if you are on the coast or just visiting, that you can join us for some of our activities and services. Please check out our web site and see what we are doing and what we have to offer. Thanks for coming by.

Hey yall this is a message from Mississippi Coast Amateur Radio Association. We will not be holding meetings and or testing sessions at the AMR building for the next 2 months. We will instead be relocated to The District (South Mississippi Planning and Development District) on Hwy 49S in North Gulfport near the intersection of Hwy 49 and Airport Road. This is the same building we held SKYWARN training in and all is still welcome. The times will still be the exact same as they were and are as follows.

First Saturday of every month at 10:00AM will be testing sessions for upgrades and new tech licenses.

Third Monday of the month at 7:00PM will be the meeting for the club.

All are welcome to attend at this location while they renovate the AMR building for the next 2 months.


Thanks alot
