Poverty Hill Amateur Radio Group - PHARG

W1KMG

 
 

Founded in honor and in memory of the original call sign holder, Bob Begley, W1KMG, of Hancock, Maine. Bob inspired and mentored many hams throughout his long life. Bob enjoyed cw (Morse Code), amateur radio and public service, trying different modes and aspects of the hobby, as well as being an “Elmer” to new hams. PHARG’s mission is to emulate Bob and continue that tradition of helping others and inspiring present and potential hams into embracing the Amateur Radio Service (Ham Radio)


PHARG Conducts special events and operating activities throughout the year. They will be posted here when scheduled.

 

Bob Begley

Our inspiration and the ham we honor. Bob became a silent key just a few years ago, but is still sorely missed.

Simplex Proposal

Our Feb 22 Simplex test was successful & fun, so much that we are proposing a statewide schedule of monthly VHF/UHF simplex events.
