The Kennehoochee Amateur Radio Club had its beginning in 1949 in the living room of Charlie Whitaker's, W8AZT, house on Church street in Marietta. There was much debate and discussion within the club as to whether the club should be called the Kennesaw or the Chattahoochee Amateur Radio Club. It seemed that all agreed that those should be the boundaries for the club but all could not agree on which would be the name. Finally Jack Hudson, W4HR, suggested Kennehoochee and the club chose that name unanimously.
