Warren was an active amateur radio operator since 1962, a hobby he loved throughout his life. He welcomed new hams into the hobby and was a mentor to many.

Warren was active in the Milwaukee Repeater Club, where he served as an officer for many years. He was an active member of the Amateur Radio Emergency Service, American Radio Relay League, Milwaukee Radio Amateur Club and many other local radio clubs. Warren was always the first to volunteer for public service events, such as the MACC Fund bike ride, severe weather spotting, emergency preparedness drills and numerous other community events.
