Club repeater VE3RBM is off the air. It was determined that the UHF amplifier on the repeater has failed. The tech committee has found a replacement unit, but would like to determine the cause of the failure, EG high SWR in feed cable. Club repeater VE3SED is also off the air pending repairs also. Club nodes echolink and irlp are not operative at this time. Repeater VE3BAY (442.350 PL 131.8) is available.
KWARC will continue hosting a 2 meter net on club repeater back on VE3RCK each Tuesday evening at 19:00 to provide a opportunity for members to keep in touch. Come join us on VE3RCK repeater 146.865 -ve offset PL tone 131.8, And say hello for a evening of staying in touch with fellow KWARC members.
Various members will handle net control, but we are looking for
volunteers to also take up this opportunity. A fun way to learn how to
handle future nets!
Please email
if you would like to volunteer to control a future net.
The KWARC Weekly Ragchew takes place on club repeater VE3KSR (146.970 -ve offset, tone 131.8), each Thursday evening from 19:00 to 20:30. This is not a net, and there is no net control, but club members are encouraged to call CQ during this time, just to see who answers.
