Melbourne Electronics And Radio Club

Introduction
Welcome to MERC.
We are an amateur radio and electronics enthusiasts club located in Travancore, about 5km north-west of the Melbourne CBD.
The club caters for all ages and levels of experience, whether licenced radio amateurs or not.
If you're interested in obtaining or upgrading your amateur radio licence, MERC is able to help. We have two WIA-qualified assessors who can assist you in studying and preparing for your exam. You can of course sit your exam at the club, when you feel you're ready. Licence examinations are held at the club as needed.
