Meetings
We usually meet the first Friday of the month at 7:00 pm at the Norkenzie Christian Church, 2530 Crescent Ave., Eugene, Oregon.
Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.
For answers to additional questions about the club, read our FAQ document.
Become a Member
Attend a meeting and fill out a membership application for a first reading. Then come to a second meeting and we’ll re-read your membership and vote to have you become a full member. Then pay your annual dues ($24 per individual, $36 per family, or $12 for youth) and you’re in!
Dues may be paid at a club meeting, or you can send them to our treasurer, along with your membership application to: treasurer@valleyradioclub.org
If you are a member and wish a club roster, send an email to: roster@valleyradioclub.org
Get on the Air Station
Before the pandemic, our station was available almost every Saturday (when there weren’t U of O home games) from noon to 2:00 pm at the Eugene Science Center, 2300 Leo Harris Pkwy, Eugene. New equipment is now being installed so that you can once again get on the air, where we are able to use multiple bands and even do some digital communication. Watch this space for the grand opening.
Please come and see us and bring a friend.
