British Amateur Television Club
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Founded in 1949, the British Amateur Television Club (BATC) encourages and co-ordinates the activities of amateurs involved in all aspects of television as a hobby. It is the largest such specialist organisation in the world, is affiliated to the Radio Society of Great Britain (RSGB) and is run by its members on a voluntary, unpaid basis.
The Club holds an annual convention and exhibits at various shows and rallies throughout the UK. To ensure that amateur television is properly represented, the Club liases with other international amateur television organisations and has been represented at international policy making conferences.
