Membership and Dues
Membership in the club is open to all radio amateurs, and those planning to become radio amateurs. Our membership fee (dues) is $30 per year for 2024 and entitles the member to full membership privileges. While attendance of meetings is not mandatory, the nature of this club is to promote and encourage a participatory membership.
Membership entitles members use of certain equipment and may also entitle members to a discount on certain projects or equipment, as determined by the club from time to time.
This club avails itself of certain insurance protection available from Radio Amateurs of Canada. To that end, all members who are not already members of RAC, including family members who are not members of RAC, must make this known to the Treasurer and will be assessed an adjustment amount, equal to the additional amount (currently $12) required by RAC to continue the insurance policy for the club.
Use our application form to register as a new member, update your contact information or request to be added to our mailing list.
