About

The Scarborough Amateur Radio Club was founded in 1946 and became incorporated in 1977 as a non profit organization with the following objectives:

  • The advancement of Amateur Radio as a hobby by providing, to Club Members aspiring to participate in that hobby, training in basic radio theory and the International Morse Code.
  • The active support of Radio Amateurs of Canada, Inc.
  • The active support of Government and local community authorities when such support is in the best interests of our community and our Club.
