Meetings

The next meeting will be a social gathering at the Hobgoblin Pub in Roppongi on Friday, 22nd March, starting at 18:30. Drop in and discuss your latest ham activities over a pint.

Agenda

There is no planned agenda for the meeting. Please let the group know what you are doing with ham radio.

The Tokyo International Amateur Radio Association (TIARA) holds monthly meetings in English usually in Jiyugaoka, Tokyo. Jiyugaoka is just a few minutes from Shibuya on the Tokyu Toyoko Line, or from Oimachi on the Tokyu Oimachi Line. Meetings are held on the third Friday of most months except August (Field Day & Ham Fair) and December (Christmas Party). The meetings are open not only to members, but other English-speaking hams and foreigners residing in or visiting Japan interested in amateur radio.
