About Us
AL4US is the call sign for the American Legion Amateur Radio Club located in Sevierville Tennessee. We are a group of federally licensed radio operators who continue to serve our communities. We are constantly learning about technology and sharing our knowledge and expertise with others.
Five major objectives guide our club and support our mission of advancing the art and knowledge of amateur radio among veterans.
1. To promote amateur radio and electronics.
2. To promote good relationships between American Legion members who are licensed radio amateurs and the public through public service activities.
3. To help assist people in obtaining an FCC Amateur Radio License and encouraging currently licensed operators to upgrade.
4. To participate in activities involving amateur radio.
5. To be prepared to respond in cases of declared emergencies or disasters, and to offer amateur radio communications where necessary.
We are now an American Radio Relay League (ARRL) affiliated club.
Meetings
- Anyone can join AL4US. If you interested in learning more about the American Legion Amateur Radio Club, we meet on the 2nd Thursday of every month. Our meetings start at 7:00 p.m. and are held at the American Legion building.
- If you can attend our monthly meeting, we would love to have you. You do not need to know anything about amateur radios, antennas or computers. You are not required to have your own radio equipment and we will help you obtain your Amateur Radio license from the FCC.

- If you are looking for ways to continue to serve your community, we encourage you to come check us out.
