Meeting invitation from the OARC president

Well we are almost at holiday season and there is snow on the ground. As winter envelops us, it is time to look at a few of our club’s special events coming up, in particular the Canadian Ski Marathon (CSM) on February 10-11, 2024. For more information about the CSM and to volunteer to help out at this public service event, go to https://hambone.ca/csm.

Our December meeting will be held at Scout HQ on December 13th. This meeting will be an open house with goodies to be had along with coffee and soft drinks. Unfortunately we cannot have a bar but that does not preclude us from having a nice evening of friendship and camaraderie. There will be draws for prizes which will be provided to the winners in the new year.

On another note Harrie VE3HYS will be installing a system improvement to the VE2CRA repeater so that the DMR system will be able to connect to the Brandmeister DMR network.

I want to wish everyone all the best for the Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa celebrations and a happy and prosperous 2024.

Ed VE2MPP
President, OARC

Please join us in person at Scout Headquarters for this event. There will be an unattended (view only) Zoom feed of this get together for those who can not attend in person.

Meeting location is Scout Headquarters (SHQ)


Scout Headquarters is at 1345 Baseline Road, Ottawa. Parking is free in the SHQ lot.

  1. Hey. I’m a newly certificated ham but am not part of OARC (or any club) yet. Would I be welcome at this event to see what the club’s about?

    1. Hi CJ. Non-members, whether licensed or not, are always welcome at OARC meetings.

      Also many organizations such as Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC) and the OARC offer a free one-year membership to newly licensed hams. Please contact membership@oarc.net to claim your new membership – then you WILL be a member when you come to the December get together.
