Welcome to GARC's Website

We are a student organization at the University of Florida, focused on being a community of students interested in amateur radio and adjacent hobbies. The W4DFU amateur radio station was established in 1934, and thanks to the support of AFGAR/WR4UF (Alumni and Friends of Amateur Radio) represents the Gator Nation internationally on a daily basis. We are RadioActive Gators!
