Overview

The New Mexico VHF Society promotes VHF, UHF, and microwave activity in the State. We serve to organize the amateur radio community interested in VHF+ in and around the State of New Mexico and help define the people and resources associated with the 50 MHz and higher portion of the spectrum.

There is no particular emphasis on contests, operating modes, or any specific on-air activity. Everyone is welcome including moon-bouncers, microwavers, FM handi-talkie users, homebrewers, grid chasers, contesters, and DXers. We share a common interest in the amateur bands from 50 MHz through light.

The NMvhf.org website was originated in January 2016 by KG5FHU, WB2FKO, W7QQ, and KK6MC. The New Mexico VHF Society was formally organized in November 2016 through the efforts of N7KA and W7QQ. We'll do what we can to connect anyone and everyone who is interested and active on the VHF+ amateur radio bands.
