OMARC celebrated 30 years of service in 2007
Specifically we serve the residents and visitors of the Ocean and
Monmouth county area with a club sponsored open 2 Meter repeater system and
various Amateur Radio activities, most of which are open to all interested parties.
OMARC was founded in 1977 and has been a responsive and responsible organization with dedicated club officers and members
which share a common interest in Amateur Radio and the community in which we live.
In addition, OMARC is proud to have been an ARRL Affiliated Club since July of 1979.
OMARC is also an ARRL Special Services club as well. We conduct a well developed
and effective program of public service oriented programs providing communications for
various events, we provide training courses, VE testing sessions and ongoing assistance
targeted to prospective and newly licensed hams in our community.
We now have the club membership application form on the website. You may print it out (or request
one via an S.A.S.E. to the club address) and mail to the club address to the attention of the Treasurer
or better yet, bring it to the next monthly meeting on the 2nd Saturday of each month.
For the HTML membership application click here.
All OMARC members can request an e-mail address @omarc.org and a speed dial number on the club repeater for autopatch.

OMARC has been serving the Amateur Radio community of central New Jersey since 1977.
"We are indeed a first responder," Haynie said on behalf of the nation's some 680,000 Amateur Radio
operators. Ham radio is more than "just having fun playing on the radio. It also produces capable, trained
volunteer communicators in systems of emergency telecommunications that are impervious to disasters
of all sorts." -- ARRL President Jim Haynie, W5JBP June 11, 2003 testifying on Capitol Hill on behalf of HR 713
