Celebration of Life for Darren Kalmbach

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of our dear friend Darren Kalmbach – KC0ZIE.

His life will be celebrated on May 4th at 1 p.m. at the Fort Collins Senior Center at 1200 Raintree Dr, Fort Collins. Food and music will be served to honor his memory. We’re asking people to wear either tie dye or nerdy shirts (since it’s also Star Wars Day)

We would greatly appreciate it if you could bring some food to share. Please join us in commemorating Darren’s wonderful life.

Weekly Nets

Monday Tech Net

The club holds a technical net on Monday at 6:00 p.m. on the 447.275 (Negative offset & 100 Hz tone). This is an excellent chance to ask any question about radios, antenna, or just how to get on with that project. No questions are too simple.  Join us. Echo link folks, please join in.

If you have comments, topic suggestions, or questions for the net, please get in touch with [email protected]. If you don’t have a license and have questions you’d like to hear discussed on the air, please email those to the same address.

Wednesday Club Net

The club holds a net each Wednesday at 6:30 pm on the 447.275 repeater (Negative offset & 100 Hz tone).  This net starts as a formal net with check-ins and an opportunity to ask questions of the board and members.  Then switches to an informal net where participants can chat about anything on their mind.

              Attention: Should the 447.275 Horsetooth Repeater fail the NCARC Wednesday Club Net will promptly move to the 145.115 repeater (100Hz tone)
