| The Gwinnett Amateur
Radio Society is an amateur radio club serving Gwinnett County,
Georgia, in the North Metro Atlanta area. We are a Special Service club
affiliated with the ARRL.
With near 130 members, GARS is an active part of the Amateur Radio
community, and plays an important role in Gwinnett County. We invite
you to join us at our next meeting to learn more about us.

October
15, GARS Participated in the 48th Annual
Jamboree on the Air (JOTA)
Jamboree on the air for
2005 was success. Members of GARS, ARES and Venture Crew 73 had three
HF stations and the ARES trailer operational from the Gwinnett Fire Academy.
Scouts from all over the county enjoyed the opportunity to communicate
with other scouts around the country and listen to QSO’s with amateurs
around the world.
Scouts and amateur radio
have had a long relationship. Both scouts and amateur radio operators
learn while having fun and both have requirements for public service.
Some of the youth we
served at JOTA will be GARS and ARES members in the future. If you know
of any youth between the ages of 14 and 21 be sure to bring them to the
next meeting of Crew 73.
