Donations

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.

Monthly Board Meetings

The board meets the second Thursday of each month at 7 pm. Meetings are held via internet video link. If members wish to attend, please contact a board member for the internet video link information.

Monthly General Meetings

We now hold hybrid (in person and via internet video) club meetings on the FIRST Thursday of each month at 7 pm at the Yamhill County Auditorium, 2050 NE Lafayette Ave., McMinnville, Oregon.

Internet video links are sent via email to members a few days prior to the meetings. Those links are generally also shown in the monthly newsletter.
