WHCA–ARC Labor Day Special Event Station – W3H
The White House Communications Agency Amateur Radio Club (WHCA–ARC) proudly announces its Labor Day Special Event Station, honoring the dedication, service, and sacrifice of American workers—past and present.
From August 30th through September 2nd, WHCA–ARC operators will be active across multiple amateur radio bands using SSB, CW, and digital modes. This nationwide activation invites amateur radio operators from all backgrounds to join us in recognizing the spirit of Labor Day through the power of communication.
Operating under the callsign W3H, club members will transmit on bands ranging from 10 to 80 meters, with real-time updates available via popular spotting networks. Whether you prefer voice, Morse code, or digital communications, WHCA–ARC will be on the air and ready to connect.
Participants who make contact during the event are eligible to receive a commemorative certificate. To request yours, please visit whitehousecomms-arc.org for instructions. A $5.00 donation is kindly requested to help cover printing and mailing costs; any remaining funds will support the club’s website and outreach efforts.
WHCA–ARC is a non-partisan organization composed of current and former members of the White House Communications Agency—a military unit that provides global communications support to the President of the United States. The club includes officers and enlisted personnel from all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, united by a shared commitment to technical excellence, emergency readiness, and public service.
This special event station is more than a celebration—it’s a tribute to the enduring values of labor, professionalism, and national service. Through the spirit of amateur radio, WHCA–ARC continues to give voice to history, honor, and community.
