The Point Loma Amateur Radio Club (PLARC) was organized in 1957 by members of the U.S. Navy Electronics Laboratory (NEL). The club is based in San Diego, California, and throughout its history it has primarily comprised amateur radio enthusiasts from U.S. Navy organizations in Point Loma -- mostly civilian Department of Defense employees. The club operates on a wide variety of amateur radio (or ham) bands, from HF through VHF and UHF. Over the years, club activities have included contests, disaster preparedness drills, and plenty of simply social radio contacts. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) assigned call sign for the club is W6RDF. This call sign is used for all transmitters operating at the club's station or "shack".
