Upcoming Meeting Details
The January through April meetings will be the third Wednesday of each month at the St. Charles County-City Library Spencer Road Branch in Room A beginning at 6:00 PM. Please note the meeting start time is earlier than in the past due to the library closing an hour earlier in 2026. If you’d care to grab a bite to eat, some members will gather at the McDonald’s on the corner of Mexico Road and Spencer Road around 5:00 PM. See Apple/Google map links below for location of the library and McDonald’s.

General Meeting Information
The St. Louis QRP Society meets on the third Wednesday of each month at various locations that will be announced on this web site. Anyone with an interest in QRP, homebrewing or kit building, or just having fun with ham radio is welcome to join us.
In 2025 we began holding our warm-weather meetings at Bridgeway Park in Bridgeton, Missouri (Google Map link). The park has been the site of our Field Day operation, so it’s handy to meet there to plan and prepare. It’s worked out great!
Meetings during colder months will be at St. Charles City County Spencer Road Branch Library.
There are some special events planned on some months and exceptions to our normal meeting locations and times:
- The May meeting is our Annual Picnic and Field Day Planning meeting which is held at Bridgeway Park.
- The June meeting is our Final Field Day Planning meeting at Bridgeway Park.
- The September meeting is our Annual Tailgate Swap, which is held at Creve Coeur Lake Park. A notice will be posted announcing location details.
- The November meeting is our Annual Holiday Dinner Meeting, held at a local restaurant. The location changes from year to year, so please watch this page for location and time.
