Be a part of the best technical HAM club hereabouts, a place to meet with fellow HAMs to share experiences, get help from more seasoned HAMs about everything from operating, equipment es to get help with your repair problems.

The group was his idea and, in my humble opinion, is probably the best idea he ever had, bar none. Ray, W4BYG, hosted the first meeting of AREU at his house in 1996 as I remember. The name of the group was pondered and the purpose of the group was defined at this meeting. The purpose was to meet regularly and encourage activities to increase technical activity and competency in the Brandon area. The meetings were to be informal affairs (that has been a great success) with folks from the amateur community presenting projects and presentations for the information and enjoyment of the attendees. Maybe Ray or Ron (another founding member) can shed some light on the first meetings and discuss the activities of AREU through the years. With the great support of a few hams in the area, myself not included at present, a lot of information has been presented and much-much enjoyment has been had by both presenters and attendees. I look forward to the AREU meetings and attend as often as I can. AREU continues to survive and will hopefully continue for many years in the future.

As the BARS President, we were not having any good technical meetings like Bernie does today. Ray was frustrated with us and started AREU. At the time I was upset that he was forming a club to draw members away from Bars. As we know now, both clubs have co-existed to the benefit of all. Thanks Ray.

I didn't make the connection at the time. I have enjoyed both clubs and an very grateful that things happened as they did. I think that is the feeling of a lot of other Brandon folks.
