The OARC participates in the annual field day sponsored by the RAC in conjunction with the ARRL. The club treats this as a social event more than a serious contest and the effort is low-key. This is a great time to come out to have some fun!

Regular Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month, at 19:30L (except July and August).

We meet at Ottawa City Hall, formerly RMOC headquarters on Lisgar st. on the second floor.

Or catch us on Mondays at 20:00L on the Capital City FM Net using the club repeater VE2CRA
(146.940- 100hz CTCSS).
