About Us

The Northwest Amateur Radio Society was established in 1985 and serves amateur radio operators in the suburban FM 1960 area NW of Houston. NARS is active in community and public service events.

Each January, NARS holds a banquet to reflect on the past year’s events and to introduce the board members for the upcoming year. Spouses and significant others of NARS members usually attend the banquet which includes dinner, a recognition program, and home-spun entertainment (which is always great!). As you can see by reviewing the membership roster, the vast majority of the NARS members are men.

Often, the banquet is the only occasion when many of the ladies attend a club event. It may be the only annual occasion when some of the women actually see each other and have a chance to talk.

Meeting Location

Meetings are very informal, usually during the fourth week of the month. Lately, they have been at the Starbucks in the HEB parking lot at Spring-Cypress and Champions Forest. Meeting notices are circulated by email. Contact Anita Townsend by email for details.
