Welcome to the Holiday Version of
our little spot on the
web. We hope that you find our website informative and
helpful. It is a work in progress and as they say...."under
construction" so please check back often for updates.
Robertson
County Amateur Radio Club is
celebrating our 14th year anniversary in 2025 as a group of dedicated
amateur
radio operators located in the Northern part of Middle
Tennessee. While we are based in Robertson County Tennessee, just
North of Nashville, but we support all counties in Northern Middle
Tennessee and in South Central Kentucky and invite any licensed amateur
radio operator in these areas to join our group and help us to grow.
Club
meetings are held on the first
Thursday night of each month at the First Free Will Baptist Church, 811
16th Ave. East in Springfield, TN. The
time for
the meeting is

welcome to
attend. Enter the building from the rear and into the
basement. The next club meeting will be Thursday, December 4th
and everyone is encouraged to attend.

here. Our events
page will be updated as we get more information.

Below are some links to
Christmas themed web pages that we thought you might enjoy. Some are
web pages not directly associated
with the RCARC page. These are primarily geared towards children
but we
suggest that parents review the pages first or better yet, visit them
along with your children...at least the first time. As with most all
things
on the internet these days, some of the pages have ads and a
combination of free and pay areas.
***Please note that RCARC has no
financial connection with any of these pages and we do not receive any
type of compensation for listing them here***
**Disclaimer**
We reveiw each page listed here but cannot control any changes that
they may make
after our review so if you find something that you feel may not be
appropriate, please email our webmaster at kd4tjo@yahoo.com
to report it. We will check, verify your report and take necessary
action to remove the link ASAP.
