ARES Membership Requirements
Every licensed amateur, regardless of membership in ARRL or any other local or national organization is eligible to apply for membership in ARES. Training may be required or desired to participate fully in ARES. Please inquire at the local level for specific information. Because ARES is an Amateur Radio program, only licensed radio amateurs are eligible for membership.

Silent Key Prayer
My chair is sitting empty
My call's no longer heard
My radio rests quietly
From it comes no words
On my shack door is a message
That reads "From me to thee"
My frequency's much higher now
I've become a Silent Key
