The WWV ARC was created in January 2019 to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of NIST Radio Station WWV, located near Fort Collins, Colorado since 1966.  After the very successful October 2019 100th anniversary SES, several of the organizers kept the club loosely together and in the fall of 2020 discussions of re-writing the by-laws got rolling.  We registered with the State of Colorado as a non-profit in December 2020, and in April 2021 we established new by-laws and elected a re-organized Board.  WWV ARC is a recognized ARRL affiliated club as of May 28, 2021.

Our mission statement:

The WWV Amateur Radio Club (WWVARC) exclusively promotes and celebrates the historic, scientific, and cultural importance of radio station WWV and amateur radio by conducting club educational programs and activities related to WWV, time and frequency measurement, and amateur radio.

We look forward to exploring and supporting a variety of amateur radio topics, citizen science amateur radio initiatives, metrology themes and issues, historical ties between amateur radio and NIST, as well as continued support for radio stations WWV, WWVB, and WWVH and the NIST Time and Frequency services of the US Government.
