Motorola's 75th Anniversary
 

2003 marked Motorola's 75th year of operation. To help marc this festive occasion the Motorola Amateur Radio Club hosted a special event station on September 26-27, 2003. Operators from MARC chapters around North America made hundreds of contacts. People who had used and enjoyed Motorola products over the decades, from televisions and radios to cell phones and cable modems, came out to celebrate our 75th and wish us another successful 75. Many were even Motorolans themselves at one time.
