Calling All Contest Enthusiasts: Grand Mesa Contesters of Colorado (W0TM)

Calling All Contest Enthusiasts: Grand Mesa Contesters of Colorado (W0TM)

The ARRL (American Radio Relay League) is excited to introduce you to the Grand Mesa Contesters of Colorado (GMCC)! While some information about the club seems to be outdated on the ARRL website, here's what we can glean:

A Focus on Competition

Based on the club's name and their affiliation date (dating back to 1982!), we can assume the GMCC is likely passionate about contesting. Ham radio contests offer a thrilling opportunity to test your operating skills, strategy, and station capabilities against other amateur radio operators worldwide.

Broader Ham Radio Interests (Potential)

Although "Contest" is listed as a specialty, the ARRL information also mentions "General Interest." This suggests the GMCC might cater to a wider range of ham radio interests beyond contesting.

Limited Information Available

Unfortunately, the provided details lack specifics on current meeting times, locations, or services offered. We were also unable to find a functioning website for the GMCC at this time (http://grandmesa.org).

The ARRL: Your Gateway to Ham Radio

Despite the limited information about the GMCC, the ARRL can still be your valuable resource. They offer a wealth of information on finding clubs near you, licensing requirements, educational materials, and even potential contact details for the GMCC officers (Daniel C. Norman N0HF and Ashton R. Lee KQ0C).

Here are some suggestions for connecting with the GMCC:

  • Search Online: Try searching for "Grand Mesa Contesters of Colorado" on ham radio forums or social media groups. You might find recent updates or contact information from other members.
  • Contact the ARRL: Use the ARRL's "Find a Club" resources (https://home.arrl.org/action/Membership/MembershipDirectory/NationalMemberDirectory.aspx) and see if they have any updated information on the GMCC. You could also try contacting the ARRL directly to see if they have ways to connect you with the club.
