Description:

The Sierra Blanca Amateur Radio Club, Inc. (SBARC) is an organization based in Ruidoso, New Mexico composed of individuals who share a common interest in and enthusiasm for amateur (ham) radio. Each of our

members hold a valid amateur radio license issued by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission. In addition, the club has its own amateur radio license (KR5NM) which is administered by a trustee member.   Founded in the late 1980s, the club was incorporated in the State of New Mexico as a non-profit organization in 1992. A primary purpose of the club is to operate and maintain a VHF amateur radio repeater system, which is used to provide reliable voice communications throughout Lincoln County, NM. This system is available 24 hours a day to support emergency and disaster relief operations by volunteer amateur radio communicators in Ruidoso and surrounding communities. In addition, the club was founded to: — Promote interest in amateur radio communications and experimentation. — Disseminate information among its members concerning scientific advancement and progress in the field of radio communications. — Organize and train licensed radio amateurs for the purpose of providing radio communications as a public service. — Foster education in the field of electronic communications for both members of the club and the public at large.
