World Amateur Radio Day Celebration

The Ham Radio Emergency Communications Group Inc. invites you to join us on April 18, 2021 (Sunday) in our Special Edition Net Call in celebration of the  World Amateur Radio Day from 8:00 to 9:00 PM at 144.960MHz.



World Amateur Radio Day


Every April 18, radio amateurs worldwide take to the airwaves in celebration of World Amateur Radio Day. It was on this day in 1925 that the International Amateur Radio Union was formed in Paris.


Amateur Radio experimenters were the first to discover that the short wave spectrum - far from being a wasteland - could support worldwide propagation. In the rush to use these shorter wavelengths, Amateur Radio was "in grave danger of being pushed aside," the IARU 's history has noted. Amateur Radio pioneers met in Paris in 1925 and created the IARU to support Amateur Radio worldwide.   


Just two years later, at the International Radiotelegraph Conference, Amateur Radio gained the allocations still recognized today - 160, 80, 40, 20, and 10 meters. Since its founding, the IARU has worked tirelessly to defend and expand the frequency allocations for Amateur Radio. Thanks to the support of enlightened administrations in every part of the globe, radio amateurs are now able to experiment and communicate in frequency bands strategically located throughout the radio spectrum. From the 25 countries that formed the IARU in 1925, the IARU has grown to include 160 member-societies in three regions. IARU  Region 1 includes Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Northern Asia.Region 2 covers the Americas, and Region 3 is comprised of Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific island nations, and most of Asia. The International Telecommunication Union ( ITU ) has recognized the IARU as representing the interests of Amateur Radio.  


Today, Amateur Radio is more popular than ever, with more than 3,000,000 licensed operators!


World Amateur Radio Day is the day when IARU Member-Societies can show our capabilities to the public and enjoy global friendship with other Amateurs worldwide.  


Special Theme for World Amateur Radio Day 2021 Announced

The IARU  Administrative Council has chosen “Amateur Radio: Home but Never Alone” as the theme for World Amateur Radio Day, Sunday, 18 April 2021. Faced with a pandemic that forced the adoption of extreme physical isolation to reduce the spread of the virus, the worldwide amateur radio community responded positively to overcome the resulting social isolation. In the days and weeks following the onset of the pandemic radio amateurs reached out spontaneously to one another via the airwaves at the local, national, and global levels. Local “wellness nets” provided friendly voices and regular status checks to those, especially the elderly, who are confined to their homes. “Stay safe” special event stations in dozens of countries reminded us all of the importance of limiting the spread of the virus.


While the development of effective vaccines offers hope for a return to some semblance of normality later in 2021, the pandemic will still be with us when we mark World Amateur Radio Day 2021. This theme offers the opportunity for our member-societies to tailor meaningful messages to the general public about the values ​​of the global amateur radio community.


We have provided a poster for World Amateur Radio Day. Any club may download it and use it to promote WARD in their area. The poster comes in two sizes:  61cm x 91cm and a small (A4) flyer. https://www.iaru.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/a4.pdf .


Groups should promote their WARD activity on social media by using the hash tag  #WorldAmateurRadioDay  on Twitter and Facebook.
