ARDC (Amateur Radio Digital Communications) has announced their 2026 funding priorities along with the deadline for grant applications (1-Feb-2026).

As members of the HamSCI and amateur radio communities may already be aware, the mission of Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) is to support, promote, and enhance digital communication and broader communication science and technology, to promote Amateur Radio, scientific research, experimentation, education, development, open access, and innovation in information and communication technology.

HamSCI made its first ever appearance at the 2025 HamCon Colorado/ARRL Rocky Mountain Division Convention, held 24-26 October, in Grand Junction, Colorado.
