The Amateur's Code

The Amateur's Code was written by Paul Segal, W9EEA, in 1928:

The Radio Amateur is:

CONSIDERATE . . . never knowingly operates in such a way as to lessen the
pleasure of others

LOYAL . . . offers loyalty, encouragement and support to other amateurs,
local clubs, and the American Radio Relay League, through which Amateur
Radio in the United States is represented nationally and internationally.
**

PROGRESSIVE . . . with knowledge abreast of science, a well-built and
efficient station and operation above reproach.

FRIENDLY . . . slow and patient operating when requested; friendly advice
and counsel to the beginner; kindly assistance, cooperation and
consideration for the interests of others. These are the hallmarks of the
Amateur spirit.

BALANCED . . . radio is an avocation, never interfering with duties owed to
family, job, school, or community.

PATRIOTIC . . . station and skill always ready for service to country and
community.



** In 1928, the ARRL was probably the only significant national radio club
in the world. Today, almost every country has their own. The intent of
this point is loyalty to your own national radio club, which represents your
respective country.
