Our Origins
On November 4, 1948, eleven Pictou County radio amateurs met at the home of Jim McNabb VE1DZ in Trenton to discuss plans for organizing an amateur radio club. At that meeting Jim McNabb VE1DZ, Joe Miller VE1UK and Gus Chisholm VE1TX were appointed as a committee to draw up a constitution and by-laws for an Amateur Radio Club.
On December 2, 1948, twelve Pictou County amateurs met at the home of Joe Miller VE1UK to hear and discuss the constitution and by-laws drawn up by the committee. At this meeting a club was formed, to be known as the Pictou County Amateur Radio Club.
