Sabine Valley Amateur Radio Association
K5GVL is Greenville’s amateur radio club, serving Hunt County and East Texas with repeaters, training, public service and emergency communications for 50 years.
Who We Are
SVARA is a group of licensed amateur radio operators, from brand-new technicians to longtime operators, who share a love of radio and a commitment to the community. We keep the K5GVL repeater on the air for everyone in Hunt County and link it with our members’ repeaters across the area.
Anyone with an interest in radio is welcome, licensed or not. Come to a meeting, check into the weekly net, or just say hello on the repeater.
Our Mission
We promote amateur radio in Hunt County, help new operators get licensed and on the air, and provide reliable communications for our community when it’s needed most, from severe weather to local events.
