2026 Board of Directors

Welcome, and thanks for visiting our website. The Kern County Amateur Radio Club (KCARC) is a diverse group of individuals who share a common interest in the hobby of Amateur Radio. Radio Amateurs (or "Hams" as they are commonly called) are those who hold a valid FCC license and are interested in Amateur Radio for personal and non-monetary reasons. If you are a licensed amateur radio operator and not yet a member, we hope you will consider joining our club. If you are not yet licensed but have an interest in amateur radio, contact us and we’ll help you get started! Better yet come meet our friendly members at one of our monthly club meetings.
