Award details below.\n\nWhat can I bring?\n\nAny home-built\, non-commercial amateur radio equipment.\nUnfinished projects are welcome; tell us what you’ve done so far.\nIt doesn’t have to be complex\, fancy\, or elaborate\, just something that you have done and want others to know about.\nIt can also be from a kit you build at an OARC kit-building session.Bring out your projects and celebrate your technical accomplishments with the OARC!\n\n\nThe Clare Fowler Award\nClare Fowler was a life-long Amateur Radio operator and a beloved\, long-time member of the Ottawa Amateur Radio Club. He enjoyed countless hours contacting radio operators around the world\, testing and building antennas\, and sharing his knowledge on radio calls\, at Club meetings\, and in international publications. The OARC’s Clare Fowler Award was named for him because he won it so many times! It will be awarded in perpetuity in his memory at the OARC’s Homebrew Night. \nWhat are the criteria used by the judges for the Clare Fowler Award?\nOriginality (30%) \n\n10 – not original\, circuits and applications in most amateur publications\, kits\, existing software.\n20 – modifications to published circuits and applications\, modify existing software\, modifications and additions to kits.\n30 – new original concept and/or application\, little or no info in most amateur publications\, develop new software\, mathematical calculations\, not a kit.\n\nComplexity (30%) \n\n10 – simple\, few parts/components\, dimensions\, layout and lead lengths not very critical or easily measured\, multimeter instrumentation\, make in a day or less.\n20 – fair number of parts/components\, chassis\, circuit board\, some attention to dimensions\, layout and lead lengths\, simple software program\, use vswr meter\, signal generators etc.\, construction time between one day and a week.\n30 – relatively large number of parts/components\, one or more circuit boards\, critical layout\, dimensions\, write and debug software programs\, more advanced instrumentation\, time more than a week.\n\nCraftsmanship (15%) \n\n5 – very simple tools\, crudely constructed 10 – more advanced tools\, nicely constructed\n15 – beautifully made\, clean\, labeled.\n\nPresentation (15%) \n\n5 – short or rambling presentation\, few details or explanation.\n10 – reasonable explanation about item\, how it works and was constructed.\n15 – very well thought out short and concise description of how the item was developed and constructed\, hand out information available.\n\nThe People’s Choice award\nIn 2025\, the OARC introduced a new trophy for the People’s Choice award. The new trophy is a magnetron from a microwave oven found at a local hamfest\, mounted  on a cedar fence-post top as a base. This meets the classic Amateur Radio criteria for “scrounged” and “low or no cost”. In the spirit of Homebrew\, the winner will take it home\, add something fun to it (e.g.\, by soldering or gluing)\, and bring it back to Homebrew Night the following year to be awarded again. Over time\, the award will become increasingly elaborate (and possibly hilarious). \nClick here to read reports from past Homebrew Nights

SUMMARY:OARC Monthly Meeting - March 2026
DESCRIPTION:SPECIAL NOTICE : Tonight’s OARC Monthly Meeting (Wed Mar 11 2026\, 7pm) will be ONLINE ONLY.  While the amount of ice is not great at the moment\, it does continue to accumulate and parking lots and driveways will be slippery long after the storm has passed. \nChris will be online to tell us about Meshtastic and Mesh Core. The Teams meeting coordinates are: \nClick here to Join the meeting now [expired] \nMeeting ID: [expired] \nPasscode: [expired] \nNeed help? \nConnect around 6:45pm and we’ll get underway at 7:00pm. All Amateur Radio enthusiasts are welcome. We look forward to seeing you virtually this evening. \n73\, \nHarrie VE3HYS \n\nPhotos may be taken. Portions of the meeting may be recorded. \nDraft Agenda \n\nWelcome\, updates (Harrie\, VE3HYS)\nPresentation: MeshCore\, LoRa\, Mesh Networking\, and Building a Connected Ottawa and Beyond (Chris Schnobb)\n\n\nBIO: Chris is an IT Security Consultant with years of technical and IT experience. \nIn early 2025\, he began his journey into radio frequency (RF) during a work engagement\, which led him to discover LoRa\, a long-range radio protocol\, as an accessible entry point into the RF space. What started as curiosity quickly became a passion. Chris dove headfirst into LoRa and mesh networking\, becoming one of the leading forces behind Ottawa’s city-wide MeshCore deployment. He is the author of Ottawamesh.ca and a core developer of MeshMapper\, an application built for wardriving and mapping MeshCore networks. You may have seen him on Discord or the mesh under his tag MrAlders0n. \nABSTRACT: MeshCore\, LoRa\, Mesh Networking\, and Building a Connected Ottawa and Beyond \nThis presentation will begin with an introduction to LoRa technology and what makes it such a versatile and accessible platform for radio experimentation\, followed by a look at the value of mesh networks\, including the pros\, cons\, and design considerations for both urban and rural deployments. The presentation will also explore the potential of LoRa mesh networks as emergency communication systems for communities\, as the radios are accessible and anyone can use them. \nThe focus will be primarily on MeshCore\, while touching on Meshtastic and some of the reasons it struggled to gain traction compared to MeshCore’s success in Ottawa and other communities. Chris will cover the motivation behind the move to MeshCore\, the protocol itself\, and the ongoing development efforts that have kept it evolving rapidly. \nThe presentation will highlight tools that have emerged around MeshCore\, including MeshMapper and LetsMesh\, along with practical hardware recommendations and success stories from local deployments. Attendees will see a showcase of repeaters deployed across Ottawa and learn about some of the coolest things the community has accomplished with LoRa. \nChris will also make the case for LoRa and mesh networking as a gateway for younger newcomers to get into RF and eventually pursue their amateur radio licence\, and will touch on some early collaboration with students at Carleton University\, including the ambitious goal of linking Ottawa to Montreal and Quebec City by the end of this summer. \nThe presentation will wrap up with an overview of the Ottawa mesh community\, plans for expansion\, and where to get involved\, from Ottawamesh.ca to Discord and beyond. \nA follow-on workshop is also being planned where members can learn about and purchase a recommended configuration for either a repeater node\, a companion node\, or both\, so they can start experimenting and become part of the Ottawa mesh. Stay tuned for more details. This may include a handout with references as well. \n\n\nOther agenda items TBD

Field Day has been an annual event since 1933 and is the most popular event in ham radio\, attracting more than 31\,000 hams throughout North America. \nNew hams can catch the excitement of Field Day and prepare themselves to possibly participate next year. We will have a Get On The Air (GOTA) station for new hams\, where an experienced ham will guide you through the process. And the OARC gets Field Day points for any new hams who make contacts on that station. Learn more about OARC Field Day 2025.
