Kastrup's Continued Calling: A Danish Radio Club's Recent Centennial Celebrations and Ongoing Engagement

KASTRUP, DENMARK – In Kastrup, a municipality near Copenhagen, the Tårnby Radioklub (callsign OZ7AMG) serves as a local hub for enthusiasts passionate about amateur radio, electronics, and data. The club, which maintains regular weekly meetings, recently played a part in global amateur radio celebrations by hosting an open house to mark the centenary of the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) and World Amateur Radio Day in April 2025.

The club's stated purpose is to provide a robust framework and well-equipped facilities to support its members' diverse technical pursuits and activities. It extends a warm invitation to visitors, with weekly club nights held every Thursday from 7:30 PM at their premises located at Sneserevej 10 / Husbyvej 1 in Kastrup. These evenings offer an opportunity for attendees to see the club's equipment, engage in discussions about the hobby, and enjoy a customary coffee, thereby fostering a welcoming social and learning environment.

A significant recent highlight for the Tårnby Radioklub was its "Åbent hus" (Open House) on Saturday, April 19, 2025. This event was specifically organised to commemorate the IARU's 100th anniversary. The club opened its doors to the wider community, offering visitors the chance to explore its facilities, try out various radio equipment, and learn more about the possibilities within what it terms the "fantastiske radiohobby" (fantastic radio hobby), including how radio amateurs establish contact with others around the world. This initiative underscores a commitment to public engagement and promoting the amateur radio service.

Tårnby Radioklub operates with a formal structure, as evidenced by its Danish CVR (business registration number 36679085). The club can be contacted via its email address, info@OZ7AMG.DK, for further information regarding its activities or membership.

With its emphasis on regular "real life" gatherings and active participation in international amateur radio milestones, Tårnby Radioklub stands as a welcoming local institution. By opening its doors and sharing its passion for radio technology, it continues to foster interest and provide a communal space for technical exploration and fellowship in the Kastrup area.
