    General

    The Houston Local Traffic Net was formed July 14, 2020 in preparation for Field Day 2020. Originally called the Fort Bend County Traffic Net, the Houston Local Traffic Net has been in continuous operation since then.

    Initally, the nets ran on Mondays, with training sessions during the net, and this practice continues today.  Because of the volume and interest in the Traffic Net, in April 2021 an additional session was added on Thursdays, with training if time permits.

    A complete schedule of Area Traffic Nets is located on the HLTN.org 'Nets' webpage with the times and frequencies.  Visitors are welcome and encouraged to check-in to listen and learn this important Amateur Radio skill.

    *-* Ham Radio Demo *-*

    Join us on Saturday March 30, 2024 at the
    Fulshear Farmers Market for a Ham Radio Demo
    Everyone is welcome to participate, observe, visit or get on the air

    The market is located at the intersection of FM 1093 and Bois D Arc Ln in Fulshear.
    All are welcome to stop by and help operate or just visit and feel free to bring your own equipment to exercise it if you would like to. We will be looking to make some contacts on the local repeaters (145.49 and 146.94) as well as HF. Please give us a shout if you hear us. We hope to introduce more people to ham radio and create awareness for ARES in our community.
