It's that time of year! Most members need to renew their KWARC membership in September each year. Search for your callsign under the purple KWARC Roster box above to confirm your renewal date. If yours is due, see our Membership Renewal page, or contact the treasurer if you need any help. Thanks!
2026-09-01 Brent Petersen VE9UNB, a computer engineering professor at University of New Brunswick, sponsor of the UNB amateur radio club, will tell us about Tracking Artemis II at the UNB Earth Station! The team at the University of New Brunswick (UNB) was able to track Artemis II using the UNB Earth Station. This was a response to a request for information from NASA. Local cellular interference was mitigated in order to detect the weak signals. The tracking data of date, time, and frequency was sent to NASA. See blog
Our regular meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month, 19:00 for 19:30 (local), held jointly in person at 250 Gage Ave, Kitchener, N2M 2C8, and on Zoom. All welcome!
All club repeaters operating normally BUT IRLP connectivity is having issues again, so has been taken offline until it can be rebuilt
KWARC's 2 meter net has moved to club repeater VE3KSR each Tuesday evening at 19:00 to provide a opportunity for members to keep in touch. Come join us on VE3KSR repeater 146.97, -ve offset, PL 131.8, and say hello for a evening of staying in touch with fellow KWARC members.
Various members will handle net control, but we are looking for
volunteers to also take up this opportunity. A fun way to learn how to
handle future nets!
Please email
if you would like to volunteer to control a future net.
The KWARC Weekly Ragchew takes place on club repeater VE3KSR (146.970 -ve offset, tone 131.8), each Thursday evening from 19:00 to 20:30. This is not a net, and there is no net control, but club members are encouraged to call CQ during this time, just to see who answers.
