About KARC

The Kauai Amateur Radio Club is a non-profit organization with the goal of promoting Ham radio and public service communications.   Toward those goals, FCC Amateur Radio exams are given often.   Check the Events page for more information.


KARC maintains the KH6E repeater system.   See the Repeater page for details on these repeaters, and more.   The Home page shows the location of the repeater sites.


The club participates in Ham radio events such as field days, demonstrations, SET (Simulated Emergency Test) events and training. The monthly meetings are also listed on the Events page.   All are welcome.

Working contacts in the comm trailer, we have Dick WH6DO, Peter KH6VP and Steve WH6ST at the 2020 Winter Field Day. A great time was had by all.   Hey, don't get any of that fried chicken on the radios! :)
