    The Auxiliary Communications Service (ACS) was organized by the San Francisco Office of Emergency Services (OES) following the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake to support the communications needs of the City and County of San Francisco when responding to emergencies and special events.

    We are a unit of trained professionals who supply communications support to the agencies of the City and County of San Francisco, particularly during major events/incidents. Our goal is to support the gathering and distribution of information necessary to respond to and recover from a disaster. Our standard method of communication is amateur radio (ham radio), but we use all means of communication, including telephone, fax, email, text messaging, social media and public service radio systems.

    Volunteers are primarily licensed Amateur Radio operators; individuals possessing other technical and communications skills and licenses are also welcome to apply. Training in basic emergency communications is provided, as well as in-depth training and exercises to familiarize personnel with the many City agencies we serve.

    Today, 100 years later, the SFRC continues to operate as a not-for-profit Amateur Radio Club servicing the city of San Francisco and the community. Our members’ interests cover the entire spectrum of what Amateur Radio Service has to offer. We are a long standing member of the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and with our members we participate in, and organize events such as the Field Day, MS Walk, the San Francisco Marathon etc. In 2016 we are planning a series of special events to celebrate our Centennial year.

    The mission of the San Francisco Radio Club has not changed in over 100 years. It is to promote the art of operation and technical craft of amateur radio, to provide emergency communication services, to educate, license, and mentor new members. Ultimately we are all here to enhance and promote our wonderful hobby.
