Welcome to Superstition Amateur Radio Club’s website. Please consider joining us!
We are located in Mesa, Arizona. Here you will find information on our repeaters, monthly club meetings, board meetings, memberships, general contact information, Superstition Superfest and other activities. Whatever your amateur radio interests are, you will find others in the club with the same interests. There are those who excel in CW (Morse code) and enjoy DXing to other states and countries. Then there are others who work local VHF/UHF repeaters. Some enjoy Summits On The Air (SOTA), climbing mountains to talk to other people around the world with portable equipment. If that’s not enough, how about helping build an Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network using 2.4 GHz , 3.3 GHz and or 5.8 GHz microwave nodes here in Mesa and the surrounding communities on the SuperARC/AMO Mesh Information Network. Not only is it a lot of fun to build, you will be able to help in case of an emergency with the services that you can provide.
You can even help out the National Weather Service get “eyes on the ground” for weather reporting with Skywarn. Or any number of other activities with the new digital modes of communications that we as Amateur Radio Operators have available to us. You will find there’s always someone that you can chat with while you are learning something new with your Amateur Radio License…
Superstition Amateur Radio club has something for everyone.
Board Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM via “Zoom Meeting”. They run approximately two hours. If you would like to attend one of our board meetings please contact the Superstition ARC Club President at least 24 hours prior to the meeting for the Zoom information via the Contact page.

Are you interested in learning more about the SuperARC / AMO Mesh Information Network and what they are doing? Then Check out the information below: The Superstition ARC moved our mesh mail list over to Google Groups. We also combined our effort with the Arizona Mesh Organization. This allows you to control how you receive your email. Not a member? The process to Subscribe or Unsubscribe is very easy for you to control. If you were already on the Superstition ARC or the Arizona Mesh mail list, then you are already subscribed to the new mail list group. Your emails will still be delivered just as they were before the change to Google Groups. By logging in you can choose how you would like receive your emails: “Each email”, “Digest Abridged” or “No Email”. To sign in to the mail group use this link: groups.google.com
To Subscribe to the mail group, send an email to: [email protected]
To Unsubscribe to the mail group, send an email to: [email protected]
The email address is different for the new group. You will need to use: “[email protected]”
I would like to remind everyone of their responsibility to maintain a current mailing address with the FCC. If you are looking to print a copy of your current FCC license (maybe to carry along with your Go bag or on your person), here are the step-by-step instructions on how to accomplish this task.
