Cambridge Club Wednesday Net KWARC was sad to learn that the Cambridge club facilities suffered some vandalism and damage, which has taken their repeater off the air. They have requested to use one of KWARC's 2 meter repeaters for their Wednesday net, and we are happy to oblige! The Cambridge club net will be held on Wednesday, starting at 7:30pm, likely on the VE3RCK repeater (146.865, negative offset, 131.8 PL tone). All are welcome to check in.
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.
