The Amateur Radio Experimenters Group was formed in July 1998. The members of the Club come from all walks of life.

AREG has a practical focus. Members have a strong interest in the technical aspect of our hobby and this is reflected in some of our activities, such as fox hunting balloons, putting together the local D-Star repeater system, playing with software defined radios and assisting other VK5 groups with technical support when requested.

We have built and maintain three of Adelaide's premiere repeaters VK5RWN (D-STAR - 147.0375 & 438.400) and DMR (438.900), VK5RSA (438.025) and VK5RSB (147.175), (439.900),(53.750) and (1273.500), with 439.900 and 438.025 being connected to the state repeater network.

If you are interested in becoming a member of an active practical club, come along to our next meeting, there is always lots to do and learn at AREG!
