The Matane Amateur Radio Club is a 60 member group serving a remote community on the St. Lawrence River. The club maintains local communication infrastructure, provides training for new operators, and supports emergency communication during storms and outages.

The project installs a permanent HF station at the club site. It will provide Winlink email capability across Quebec, operate with backup power, and support remote control. The station will be used for emergency communication, public demonstrations, digital mode training, and regular regional exercises.
