Welcome to the Humber Fortress DX Amateur Radio Club – Where Radio Comes to Life!
Looking for a friendly and exciting place to explore the world of amateur radio? You’ve found it! We are the Humber Fortress DX Amateur Radio Club, proudly operating under the callsigns MX0HFC, M0HFC, and M6C,and 70cm Repeater MB5HF.
we’re based at Millhouse, Haven Road, Patrington, East Yorkshire HU12 0PS.
Our journey began in 2010 at Fort Paull as a group of enthusiasts who loved contests and special events—and we haven’t slowed down since! Now located in our fully-equipped clubhouse in Patrington, we’re a lively community of operators from the Hull and Holderness areas who enjoy everything from contesting and field days to special event stations and weekend outings. If you love radio or just want to see what it’s all about, you’re always welcome to visit, join in, or become a member—no experience necessary!
We meet every Friday night from 7:00 pm, and you’ll often find us on air through the weekend, chatting and connecting on HF VHF/UHF bands. Our clubhouse is more than just a shack—it’s a hub of activity, fun, and learning. We’ve got:
A well-stocked kitchen
Multiple radio shacks with top-notch gear
Electronics workshop for tinkering, fixing, inventing.
Whether you’re a licensed amateur, Cb”er, a shortwave listener, or just curious, our doors (and radios) are open to you!
We’re also proud of our training and education work, offering sessions both in-house and at our dedicated satellite training centre. We welcome all who want to learn about the exciting world of amateur radio.
We love to get involved in events that celebrate radio and our community! Look out for us on the air as:
