Welcome to the Amateur Radio Lighthouse Society (ARLHS, LLC).  Allow me to express my thanks for taking the time to learn more about the society where we honor the maritime heritage of so many who came before us to ensure shipping was safe and effective.  Lighthouses were, of course, a special part of this heritage and we remember their importance then and now by activating them via amateur radio.  By activating the light, we bring attention to an important part of humanity’s maritime technological achievements.

ARLHS, LLC helps the amateur radio operator and lighthouse enthusiast with several tools:

  • The most complete list of lighthouses and lightships available called the World List of Lights;
  • Awards for both lighthouse/lightship activators and chasers;
  • The popular Beacon Bot email reflector list hosted on Groups.io.

ARLHS is a dues based membership organization that hosts the above resources for a nominal annual cost.
