Technical & Special Interest Committee
Welcome to the Mike & Key Technical & Special Interest Committee web page!
Our mission statement is The mission of the Mike & Key ARC Technical & Special Interest Committee is to advance the technological knowledge and proficiency of club members and the Amateur Radio community.
