2025 Rocklin Maker Faire

And California QSO Party Special Event Station

 

The DIY Magic of Amateur Radio

ARRL public outreach booth and exhibit at the Rocklin Maker Faire

Special Event Station K6C our public outreach booth will promote Amateur Radio and our local clubs. Participants can display amateur radio equipment and antenna projects, Morse Code practice stations, and offer opportunities for attendees to learn about the many facets of our amateur radio hobby.

Booth visitors can communicate on the air with amateur radio operators via an operational on-site amateur radio Special Event Station K6C. We will offer literature and information on licensing, local clubs, the ARRL and amateur radio’s role in community service and promoting careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Radio hams and our ARRL affiliated clubs have participated in the Rocklin Maker Faire since 2015.

The Rocklin Maker Faire is a family-friendly fun event and an excellent opportunity to connect with the public and promote our amateur radio hobby and clubs.
