FARA

The Fauquier Amateur Radio Association (FARA) is an ARRL-affiliated association in the Roanoke Division. The association is located in Warrenton, Virginia, which is the county seat of Fauquier County.

Our focus is on ARESĀ® activities, community support in emergency situations, and education.

We are available to support your Warrenton-area event with FREE radio communications.

We support:
  • Walk-a-Thons,
  • Parades,
  • Dressage Events,
  • Bike Rides

Consider FRS Radios if the communication distances are under half mile
Many forms of radio equipment is available to every citizen including GMRS and FRS radios. FRS radios are especially a good value and will provide excellent communications within a half mile or so. They are easy to purchase at many retail establishments including Home Depot for a modest cost. With these unlicensed radios your volunteers will be able to provide communications for your event.

FARA can help if your communication needs span Fauquier County
However, if your event requires communications beyond half mile or your volunteers do not want to handle your communication needs please feel free to contact us.

If you have an event coming up at least two months from today that could benefit from radio communications, please contact our public service coordinator, John Huggins.

Contact John and others here.
