Description
The Mike and Key Amateur Radio Club was initially founded in 1963 under "Pop" Brown, K7LED.
In 1970, it was reorganized and has remained as one of the most active and viable Radio Clubs in the Seattle area for over a Half Century!. Activity in the Club is as varied as the hobby of Amateur Radio itself. Within the Club there are groups that engage in Contesting, DX, VHF/UHF, SSB, CW, Construction/Experimentation, Packet, some Public Service, and Traffic Handling. While the Club cannot be everything to everybody, it does provide a base of support for most radio interests. Within the membership are many of the prominent "doers" and "shakers" of Pacific Northwest Amateur Radio. Members are encouraged to be "active" in the Hobby, the Club, and the Community.
