California's Palomar Amateur Radio Club celebrated its 75th anniversary in February. The club was founded on February 13, 1936, with 21 members from northern San Diego County. At a meeting to mark the occasion, club members shared stories and the group's history, as well as a distinctive birthday cake, complete with a ham shack, tower and working antennas on 2 meters and 70 centimeters!
