Military Communications and Electronics Museum, Military museum in Kingston, Canada.
The Military Communications and Electronics Museum is a military museum in Kingston dedicated to signal technologies and equipment used by armed forces. It displays historical devices and transmission systems that shaped how soldiers communicated across different eras.
The museum was established in 1961 and traces military communications starting from 1903 through the World Wars. Its collections later expanded to cover the Korean War era and NATO peacekeeping operations that followed.
The museum exhibits include a memorial with models by sculptor Walter Allward, who designed the Canadian National Vimy Memorial in France.
Visitors should allow plenty of time to explore the exhibits at a comfortable pace, especially if interested in radio operations. The museum provides accessible pathways and areas for people with different mobility needs.
The museum operates a working amateur radio station as part of a network for radio operators. This active station is maintained by dedicated volunteers who keep the equipment functioning.
