13 April 1991
The Association of North American Radio Clubs (ANARC) was founded
in 1964. The aims of the organization are as follows :
a) Promotion of close ties and the interchange of ideas and
information among North American radio clubs.
b) Communications on behalf of North American radi oclubs and the
listening hobby with broadcasters , equipment manufactures and
dealers, the news media and the general public.
c) Establishment of standard which may be adopted by and of
individual radio clubs.
d) Establishment of resources and support for large-scale-hobby-
wide projects.
Membership in ANARC is open to radio clubs whose headquaters
and principal places of business are located in North America or
the Caribbean, with at least 50 members, which have been in
operation for at least 12 consecutive months prior to application
and publishing bulletins on a regular basis during that period.
ANARC presently has 15 full member clubs and one associate member
club. ANARC strives to work for the common good of listeners in
North America. All the clubs forming ANARC are responsible
volunteer organizations. ANARC is operated by a 7 members Executive
Council within the guidelines stipulated in the ANARC Constitution.
Each member club appoints an official ANARC representative to
complete the ANARC staff.
This flyer is designed to introduce ANARC, its member clubs, and
its services, committees and publications. Should you have questions

COMMITTEES
CPRV-The Committee to Preserve Radio Verifications: This committee is
a five person group whose goal is to presevre QSL's belonging to
hobbyists who are no longer active. Many QSL collections are often
misplaced or discarded when their owners pass away or leave the hobby.
It is hoped that through this committee's efforts, more QSL's will be
saved from loss or destruction. If you are interested in preserving
your own or others collections, please contact Jerry Berg, Chairman of
the CPRV, at 38 Eastern Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts 02173, USA for
an information pamphlet about the committee.
Computer Information Committee: David Snyder is Chairman of this
committee created to gather, evaluate and distribute information about
the application of computers and computer software in the radio
monitoring hobby. The committee is responsible for maintaining a
central distribution library for public domain software available to
radio enthusiasts wishing to use their personal computers in
conjunction with their radio activities. There are many software
programs available today which can help you to get more from your
hobby. If you have a computer and you are interested in what software
material is available, write to David Snyder at 127 Joseph Avenue,
Staten Island, NY 10314 USA.
