The South Canadian Amateur Radio Society is an American Radio Relay League (ARRL) Special Services Club and was selected as the 2020 Hamvention Club of the Year. We serve the amateur radio operators in the Cleveland County, OK area. The South Canadian Amateur Radio Society is a American Radio Relay League (ARRL) Special Services Club in the Cleveland County, Oklahoma area. We help develop the amateur radio community in the region, state, and beyond with our Facebook presence, weekly online Elmer Nights, and weekly newsletter.
We are a group of people who are interested in communicating without accessing public infrastructure. SCARS members are interested in talking to our friends or family during severe weather conditions or when power or communications systems are down. Hams are typical ‘makers’ and are interested in building our radio communications equipment. Amateur radio provides many different project opportunities to design, create, and use our gear. We live at the intersection of computers, the Internet, and radio. New, inexpensive devices allow us to communicate with neighbors using low power VHF or UHF systems. We can talk around the globe using the linked Digital Mobile Radio (DMR), D-Star technologies, or through space with satellite links in a matter of minutes.
If you want to get licensed, visit our “Be a Ham” web page, join our Facebook page, or visit with us on our online Tuesday Elmer Nights.
Welcome to the world of Cleveland County, OK amateur radio, come in, take a look, listen, or join us for your next, or first, adventure.
