Our Background

The RNARS was formed in 1960 to promote amateur radio as an aid to technical education within the Service.  In 1964 the Society was considered to be sufficiently established to invite the Captain of HMS Mercury to become its first President, a practice which continues to this day.  The Society headquarters are in HMS Collingwood.

Our Profile

We are represented in many parts of the world with local groups and branches.  Some of the groups have established amateur radio stations aboard historic ships and vessels.  Presently the list includes HMS Belfast, HMS Plymouth, HMS Onyx and HMAS Castlemaine.
