Kamloops Amateur Radio Club
The Kamloops Amateur Radio Club is a non-profit organization incorporated under the Society Act and has been in operation since 1971.
Our goal is to establish, maintain, conduct, and promote proficiency in Amateur Radio and electronics. We strive to bring together people interested in the Amateur Radio and electronics for their mutual enjoyment, and to further the knowledge and education of club members and the community at large.
Our organization serves the communities of Kamloops, Merritt, and Logan Lake, and we are proud to have members from all over the TNRD and beyond.
For almost 40 years our organization has built and maintained a network of Amateur Radio mountain top repeaters which enable voice and digital communications between a number of interior communities. A major factor in the establishment of our system has been to have in place a wide ranging Amateur Radio Repeater and Broadband IP Network in the event of a provincial or local emergency. Our system is open for use by any visiting licensed amateur operators, and is also utilized when amateur radio operators assist the public for various reasons, i.e.: stranded motorists, finding lost hikers, vehicle accidents, reporting wildfires, etc. We also work closely with Provincial and Local Government organizations during disasters and training exercises.
