Welcome to the Mercury Northwest Website

The purpose of Mercury Northwest is to provide training, a common meeting ground, and infrastructure resources for licensed Amateur Radio Operators who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or other relief organizations who support the goals of the organization.

Our primary service area is Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, British Columbia, Western Alberta, and Alaska.

Please note that Mercury Northwest is not owned, directed, operated by, or a program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Mercury Northwest exists and operates independently and simply extends its offer of service to members of the LDS Church and others with common interests.
