On Dec.09 of 2018, I got opportunity to visit the exhibition by the invitation from an friend with engineering background. I will say it is one of the best experience I got in Canada.
I do not know what I can say because a lot things there gave me great emotion. In fact I am a retired audio engineer with a mixture of emotion and feeling of good and a little sad to leave there.
I hope young people could go there to see too.
Best wishes to the S.P.A.R.C.
Great folks at the museum, a real resource for dealing with older electronic devices - radios, TVs, ham gear etc.
They have a large technical reference library with Radio College of Canada (RCC) and other collections of schematics.
Their GPS co-ordinates are Lat 49D 14' 53.51" x Long -122D 48' 28.86"
Love the smell of the old wood, and seeing the amazing restorations of old antique radios.
Keep it going! Very interesting museum.
So much history about radio!! I remember my dad bringing me here one time, I really didn't appreciate this place at first glance because it looked like junkyard to me. But holy smokes was I ever wrong! They did an excellent job preserving all those radios like a museum! Seriously, bring kids here as a field trip, they'll love it.
