The new C4FM Repeater has been installed. It is functioning in both analog FM and digital C4FM modes. There currently is no Wires-X functionality. Also Echolink is not functioning currently.
If you currently use the MARC repeater but are not a member we encourage you to be a part of the club. We would also appreciate donations to help with maintenance and equipment upgrades.

Net control for Monday evening nets.
Being net control is easy and fun. You get to know the call signs of others and get practice using your radio while in an friendly environment with no pressure. Mistakes are acceptable and no one will shame you. Below is the pre-written preamble you read so you don't have to worry about what to say. You can volunteer for one week, several weeks or an entire month to be the Monday evening net control. The club greatly appreciates your service to our organization.
If you would like to volunteer please contact our president Mike McInnis at E-mail
