285 TechConnect Radio Club -- NAØTC

Note: Regular club meetings have been canceled for 2020, due to the ongoing coronavirus situation.

The 285 TechConnect Radio Club meets on the 1st Saturday of every month, at 10AM. Exceptions are in July due to Field Day and December for the club Holiday Luncheon.

We usually hold our meetings at the Intercanyon Fire Department Station #3 on US-285 about 8.5 miles southwest of C-470 and US-285 intersection, just before Windy Point on the north side of the highway. The address is 8445 South US 285, Morrison, CO 80465.

Occasionally, due to conflicts, we need to move the meeting location. We will publish updates on the main page of this website as early as possible in the event the meeting has moved. You can also tune in to the Tuesday night Technet for any club announcements.

Presentation materials, when available, will be published in our Documents area.
