WestCumb Amateur Radio Club
Are you interested in a new/old hobby.
The WestCumb Amateur Radio Club located in Amherst NS has been active since 1980.
We meet monthly in person and also online for those who can not make the meetings.
The club has 60+ members and is very active.
We have weekly nets, monthly exercises and host an annual Symposium for amateur radio each spring in Springhill NS.
We work closely with Cumberland Regional EMO supplying backup communications if needed.
A new project has the club converting an enclosed trailer into a communications hub for amateur radio. When finished the trailer will be used to promote the hobby, train operators, attend community events, activate for contests, exercises and be ready if needed for a real emergency or disaster.
Talk to your neighbour, across town, around the province, throughout the world and even to the International Space Station. We are the original social media.
If interested, contact the club at th****************@***il.com and will get you started in this wonderful hobby.
Here are a couple of links.
