Alliance Amateur Radio Network is a registered Radio Club with the FCC – KE9EZI – and legally incorporated as an organization. We promise full fiscal and organizational transparency to all our members.
Are you an activist or looking to attend a protest\grassroots event? We have a guide created from “boots on the ground” experience. This is from our personal experience and should not be considered professional advice, only suggestions based off personal involvement. Any preparation and attendance should be well-researched, including official guidance from recognized organizations and proper entities.
Who are we for?
If you’ve ever felt shunned, shamed, excluded, belittled, or bullied and have an interest in radio communication, we are here for you.
We are a safe space.We strive to change the world in which we live in, breaking down barriers that have existed for far too long. In the face of fascism marching towards us around the globe, we stand for freedom, compassion, and inclusion. These are our unwavering beliefs.
The primary function of the club is to bring people together through curiosity, service, and communication. We are committed to fostering a welcoming, respectful, and supportive environment for all operators and guests.
Are you a current radio operator or are interested in becoming one? Do believe everyone – regardless of race, culture, gender identification, sexuality, citizenship, financial status, neurodivergence, or disability status – has the basic human rights of living their best life with decency, kindness, food, shelter, water, healthcare, workplace equality, domestic equality, the right to assemble, and the right to protest? Do you believe that no one should be able to negate the will of the people with money and favors? If so, we may be for you.
