Located in Newnan, Georgia the Bill Gremillion Memorial Radio Club (BGMRC) has a long history of community service in Coweta County. Organized in the 1970s, the BGMRC was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 2016. In 2022, the club established a "Doing Business As" name of Newnan Regional Amateur Radio Club to better describe the geographic area served.
It will be our purpose to assist members and prospective amateurs in achieving fraternalism and high standards of conduct, to conduct club programs and activities in such a manner as to advance the general interest and welfare of amateur radio in the community, and support public safety when called upon to do so. We strive to provide through our membership, amateur radio operators for the dissemination and communication of both official and unofficial information in the public interest, when determined desirable by club officers, when called upon by any official agency of Coweta County or the State of Georgia. To raise money, funds, and valuable services for the furtherance of activities of the club, to conduct educational classes, individually or in association with other organizations, promote subjects relating to amateur radio, and assist those interested in obtaining or upgrading their Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Amateur Radio License. These activities may increase the pool of amateur radio operators and provide a source of new members for the BGMRC. In addition, these activities will provide a general benefit to the amateur radio community. To provide a forum for research, experimentation, and scientific purpose for all who have an interest and seek such knowledge.
