Click here for Directions. We meet on the first and third Thursday of each month. Information about our meetings can be found on the Meetings Page. We'd love to meet you in person, on

one of our repeaters, on the air or on the waterfall. If you are not yet a "ham", we'll help you get your license. If you would like further information about how to become a ham or our radio club please email us at [email protected] or visit our Membership Page. Our hobby has been one of community service, such as providing communications in preparation for, during and after a major weather event, for walk-a-thons and other civic and athletic events. If you are visiting the area, we frequently monitor our 2 Meter repeater on 147.270 MHz offset + PL 114.8. Visit our website at WWW.W5SLA.NET
