Amateur Television (ATV) clubs bring hams together who are interested in transmitting and receiving video signals on amateur radio bands. These groups often maintain repeaters and develop new equipment for ATV operation, allowing operators to experiment with different video modes and frequencies. Many clubs also organize on-air nets and technical sessions to share knowledge and help members get their ATV stations on the air.

These clubs are crucial for supporting ATV activity, from local groups like the Western Washington Amateur Television Society to national organizations such as the British Amateur Television Club (BATC). They provide resources for hams building their own ATV gear, setting up repeaters, and exploring digital modes. Operators can find information on ATV repeaters, technical standards, and scheduled on-air events through these club networks, fostering more QSOs and experimentation in this specialized amateur radio segment.
