A Legacy of Amateur Radio in Lahr

🛠️ Founded in 1952, our club was initially established under French military oversight and later saw further collaboration with the Canadian forces in 1969.

📡 In 1977, we launched one of Germany’s first 2m repeater stations (DB0WL) on Schutterlindenberg. Today, this site continues to operate under the modernized callsign DB0LHR.
