The Hidden Tech Hub of the Erzgebirge
In the heart of Saxony's legendary mining region, the Aue-Schwarzenberg Radio Club (S45) is proving this area produces more than just minerals - it's breeding world-class radio talent. With a perfect blend of traditional engineering and cutting-edge tech, this club brings the golden age of radio into the 21st century.
Why This Club Stands Out
🛠️ Hands-On Heritage: Where miners once extracted ore, members now extract weak signals from the ether
🌐 Global Reach: Regular DX contacts from their mountainous location
📱 Social Media Savvy: Active on Instagram & Facebook - rare for ham clubs!
Their Unique Offerings
• "Funk-Basteln" Nights: Hands-on antenna building workshops
• Mountain-top Activations: Leveraging their high-altitude advantage
• Youth Mentorship: Passing on Saxon engineering traditions
Join the Fun
📅 Regular Meetups: Check their socials for upcoming OV-Abend dates
