Want to know about the original Dunfermline Radio Club ?.

A very big welcome to you from Kingdom Amateur Radio Society !

With the recent resurgence of interest in Amateur Radio a small group has got together with the aim of getting a new radio club off the ground in the Dunfermline area.

There are literally hundreds of licensed radio amateurs who live in this area and we are sure that there must be many more who would like to become licensed radio amateurs if only they had a place to go for support and encouragement.

From January 2008 we meet every third Wednesday of the month  at the Scottish Scout Headquarters, Fordell Firs, Hillend, Dunfermline.  Visitors are, of course,  most welcome but they must contact us on visitors@kars.org.uk first.

We owe Scottish Scouts a big thank you for their support and we are looking forward to providing a platform for new entrants to the hobby by means of some joint activities such as Jamboree On The Air  2008.

You'll find on the website our 2008 programme.  We hope that it has something for everyone.
