Description:

We are rebuilding the club after the passing of Ed Harwood president of AARC. Covid has put a strain on the club operation and W5BLW station , the main building we are located in (Red across Building) has reverted back to the Mercy hospital SYSTEM and it is now it a Covid testing center for Ardmore, Oklahoma. 
The W5BLW Club station and repeaters have been updated with new computer and 2 brand Yeasu DR-2 fusion Repeaters one on top on the Arbuckle mt. 146.970 - 131.8 And one located at the club station in Ardmore 146.790 - 131.8.

The Repeaters are busy with traffic all the time. So please if you are passing thru  with in 60 miles of Ardmore, Oklahoma  throw out your call on the 146.970 - tone 131.8 the tower is located on top of Arbuckle mt. Beside the I-35 corridor between OKC AND DFW.

W5BLW, Ardmore Amateur Radio Club has lost many older AARC members in the last few years. We are growing and hopefully we will be back in full service soon.
