Millbrae Amateur Radio Club

Welcome to Millbrae Amateur Radio Club (MARC). We have been an active club providing event and emergency communications in the Millbrae area since 1979. We meet on the first Thursday of each month in the Millbrae Library. We are conducting hybrid meetings. Please feel free to drop in at our meeting or contact us for a Zoom invitation. Club meetings are open to the general public. Attend to connect with fellow hams, learn more about Amateur Radio, or about getting a license or upgrade. Please feel free to drop by whether you have a Amateur Radio license or not. Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings and learn more about our club.
