AVRAC - Avalon Radio Amateurs Club

AVRAC - Avalon Radio Amateurs Club The Avalon Radio Amateurs club is an Amateur Radio Club located in St. John's , Newfoundland. We meet every 3rd Wednesday at 8:00pm John’s.

In 1993, 35 hams met at the King George V hall on Duckworth Street, St. John’s to discuss the formation of a new local club. The club would be independent and get as close as it could to the pure fun of being hams: talking about ham radio gear, playing with gear and starting up some involvement in the community with public service and emergency communications.Around that time, there was a serious

fire on Harvey Road in St. The local Canadian Red Cross tried to provide basic assistance to 100 evacuees, but it had to use runners to and from their headquarters, as the charity had no communications. After the fire experience, Red Cross recruited amateur radio operators to help in St. John’s as many other outlets do across North America.
