CONTESTING INFORMATION

Amateur Radio has many facets that give it broad appeal to a wide range of interests.
Not all Radio Amateurs participate in contesting, but those who do, are captivated
by its competitive nature and pursue it with passion.

We welcome all visitors to the MAARC Website. As a service to those interested
in contesting, the following ‘click-on’ list of Websites is intended to provide
ready access to regional, national and international contest details and
current propagation.

Your suggestions and contributions of additional information will
