Why HAM Radio?
This is a question that comes up all the time. Why, or how, in the 21st century, and with technology like cellular networks, is HAM radio still relevant? There are a myriad of reasons, but this video by Josh Nass KI6NAZ is a great explainer, please watch!
If you are currently a licensed amateur radio operator, or are interested in becoming one, please contact us. We can be reached at contact@ekarc.ca or come out to one of our meetings held at the RDEK Emergency Operations Center in Cranbrook, BC - up-to-date meeting information in the calendar above! Come to the meeting and an afternoon of amateur radio events and activities. All members and visitors are welcome!
The East Kootenay Amateur Radio Club would like to thank the Regional District of East Kootenay for their continued support, which allows us to provide Emergency Radio Communications for the communities of the East Kootenays.
