Press Release
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 W0UPS-R.
If you have comments, topic suggestions, or questions for the net, please get in touch with president@ncarc.net. 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)
There is a delay in the stream audio compared to the repeater audio
