The OMIK Amateur Radio Association, Inc. was founded on August 17, 1952, as the OMIK Electronic Communications Association by Black amateur radio operators from the states of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, and Kentucky to deal with discrimination in the dominant culture and to assist Black travelers with information on places where they could safely eat and lodge.
OMIK has grown from a regional organization to a national and international association. OMIK is the largest predominately Black amateur radio association in the United States. All licensed operators and others of good character are welcome to become members. OMIK is an affiliated club of the American Radio Relay League, ARRL. Today, although still a predominantly African-American organization, OMIK is a multi-racial, multi-cultural organization with members from the United States as well as DX entities.
