Welcome to RADARC

Thames Valley’s leading Amateur Radio Club since 1934 – this year celebrating our 90th birthday!

RADARC is a very active amateur radio club based in Reading, Berkshire, UK.

Our activities are generally at 8pm on Thursdays, and the vast majority of our meetings are run as hybrid sessions – with both local and remote speakers, and open to those on Zoom as well as in-person audiences in all cases.

Further online interaction happens via the ‘Discord’ platform, first introduced as an experiment in response to the pandemic, and via our members’ Google group.

In the summer we run social and practical events/sessions (“antenna evenings”). Generally there is no online element to these, although you may well hear us on the air!

Our members and their activities have enabled RADARC to receive the RSGB club of the year in 2010 and 2013, and in 2016 we received the Regional award from the RSGB.

We welcome all who wish to learn about radio, electronics and indeed all aspects of amateur radio. Dates of meetings can be found on our events page.
