name: Halifax Amateur Radio Club

The Halifax Amateur Radio Club (H.A.R.C.), VE1FQ, has a long history dating back to its inception in 1933 and is one of the oldest amateur radio clubs in Canada.

HARC’s membership participates in all aspects of the amateur radio hobby. The Club is positioned to provide emergency communications for various local government organizations during a time of disaster. This emergency communications capability fulfils the amateur radio legislative mandate to provide public service communications during times of need.

HARC encourages amateur radio enthusiasts of all ages and levels to participate in the many HARC-sponsored events which are intended to increase awareness and promote amateur radio in Canada’s Atlantic Region.
