Welcome to ARAN

Amateur Radio Association of Nebraska (Formerly Hastings Amateur Radio Club) is a group of dedicated volunteer amateur radio enthusiasts located in central and south central Nebraska.

We work together to help fellow amateur enthusiasts to participate, learn and promote our favorite pastime.

We also focus on community service. Please feel free to look over our website and contact us if you have any questions or comments.

Welcome to all our Internet Visitors. If you would like to contribute to our online site, feel free to sign up for an account.


The association has identified several important capital outlay projects that we are in need of help with. Currently we need additional equipment to make some go boxes to help in the case of an emergency. We also need to update our rigs used for field day events and other activities. Any amount would be appreciated.
