- Description:

GCARA is one of the oldest ham radio clubs in South Florida (Broward County) and celebrating over 50th years in operation.
Our mission is to join collectively as hams and mentor the younger population or newer hams to the hobby. We fill critical communication needs during disasters and hurricanes throughout the county. We provide communications for events like the Winter Boat Parade and Race events we are invited to. Hopefully, we can continue to foster a love for this ever-changing hobby that will allow it to continue throughout future generations. Come join us today!
