FRRL Membership
The Fox River Radio League, Inc., is a general interest amateur radio club serving the central Fox River Valley area. Records indicate the club has been in existence since at least 1924 and has functioned continuously ever since. We are an American Radio Relay League Special Service Club, an Illinois not-for-profit corporation, and a 501©(3) tax exempt organization as specified in IRS Statutes.
We sponsor training classes for new hams, license examination sessions, an annual hamfest (swap meet), and participate in numerous public service events in our communities. Our members have a wide variety of specialized amateur radio interests.
The Fox River Radio League meets on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at St. Rita of Cascia Church, 750 West Old Indian Trail, Aurora, IL. The meeting begins at 19:30. After conducting business, coffee and snacks are served while we socialize. Following the break, a program of interest is presented. All persons interested in amateur radio are invited to attend, and families are always welcome.
Annual dues are payable no later than the January Club Meeting each year. Persons joining during the year will have their first year's dues prorated to the nearest yearly quarter.
Regular dues are $20.00 a year, Senior Citizen dues are $12.00. Family dues are $30.00. You can also help support the FRRL Repeaters by making a $10.00 annual contribution.
Check with the Club Treasurer for details and additional dues rates.

Web Photo Submissions
FRRL members are encouraged to submit photos and captions of current events. All photos must meet the following minimum standards: 640x480 72 dpi. Each photo must have a caption describing the event, participants and date. Higher resolution photos produce better results. Most cell phone cameras can be used as long as the maximum quality settings are chosen. If large (over 5 meg) photos are submitted, please contact the webmaster for an alternate ftp method for submission. All photos and captions should be sent to webmaster@frrl.org.
 
Out-Going QSL Service
FRRL members can use a FREE out-going QSL service. If you are an FRRL & ARRL member, the club has an outgoing QSL service to help defray your postage cost. Simply get your cards to Jack, K9JE at any membership meeting and he will forward the cards to the Bureau.
