The Swan User Group promotes the interest, use and
understanding of amateur radio communications. Amateur
radio equipment manufactured by the former Swan
Electronics of Oceanside, CA is the main focus of this
group.
However, it is also important to preserve the
names and accomplishments of other American pioneers
in amateur radio manufacturing. To this end, we offer
information regarding communications equipment produced
by these great radio builders of the past. Additionally,
we recognize several amateur radio net operations that
showcase the many different brands of older tube type
transmitting and receiving devices that continue to
delight their keepers.
Swan User Net organizers also support the retention of electron tube technology and provide on-the-air associated technical discussions at scheduled net meetings. Current Swan Net schedules: Swan User Net - Sunday 1615 eastern time on 14292Khz. Swan Technical Nets - Wednesday 2300GMT on 14292Khz. Saturday 2-3:30PM eastern time on 7235Khz.

There will be no formal net meetings on the following occasions during 2016: Easter (March 27th), Mother's Day (May 8th), Father's Day (June 19th). Christmas Eve (December 24th)
Those unable to
check-in during scheduled net meetings can access our various on-line "QSO" rooms or subscribe to our Swan-Net mail list. Both the QSO room and Swan-Net mail list options are powerful methods of contacting other Swan and vintage radio enthusiasts for the purpose of exchanging greetings and technical information.
