About Us

Welcome to the Insurance City Repeater Club website!

The ICRC is a club established by amateur radio operators for the purpose of scientific exploration, and maintaining communications in times of emergency.

We currently meet monthly at the Bristol Engine Company No. 4 in their Training room on the 3rd Friday of each month at 7:00PM. The public is welcome to attend.  Please use the back door so as to not disturb the working fire fighting staff.  The address for the Fire House Training room is 17 Vincent P. Kelly Rd, Bristol CT, 06010.

Getting your Ham Radio License!

On the 2nd Friday of each month beginning at 7:00 PM, the Insurance City Repeater Club/Bristol Radio Club
sponsors amateur radio exam sessions at the Bristol Engine Company No. 4 in Bristol, CT.

Due to the small size of the meeting room, we are unable to accommodate walk-in examinees at this time.

Please email our VE Liaison (Jim, AB1NH) at AB1NH@mindspring.com to pre-register.

Examination fee is $15 cash or check made payable to ARRL VEC. Please visit this link for information on
