Digital Mobile Radio Webinar – Wed., July 29

To All EPA Hams:

The ARRL Eastern Pennsylvania Section will be hosting the next in our series of Webinars, “I’m On (or Almost On) DMR. So Now What?” on Wednesday, July 29th, 2020 at 7:30 PM. Mark Wheeler, KZ3MW, will be presenting this webinar on Zoom.

If you are interested in learning about Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) and are interested in learning more about this mode before investing in a radio or you’ve been using DMR for a while but would like to get some questions answered, this webinar is for you.

Please send an email to w3gwm@ arrl dot org to register. If you have any specific questions, send those too and we’ll try to get them answered.

Aug. 7th Club Meeting on 2M repeater

Join us for the first Friday, August 7th club meeting on the air at 7:00 pm. The meeting will take place on the 2M repeater at 7:00 pm. Find us on 147.21 / 147.81 MHz  PL 131.8. 

We do not plan on meeting in person until sometime in the Fall or later. Also, Amateur Radio license test sessions are on hold through September at the earliest. 

Join us on the air at our various nets. Any licensed ham is welcome to check-in. See a listing of the nets at https://www.paarc.net/nets/.

4/3 Meeting & License Test at the church are canceled

Our Friday, April 3rd meeting and amateur radio license test session at the church have been canceled due to COVID-19 concerns. We hope to reschedule the presentation on attic antennas for a later date. Please note the May 1st meeting has a high likelihood of cancelation as well. 

Instead of a face-to-face meeting, PAARC will have a First Friday Repeater Net with Ed, K3BVQ as Net Control. Repeater info: 147.21 / 147.81 MHz  PL 131.8

The board meeting scheduled for 3/20 is also in flux. We will either move it online or postpone it to a later date. 

PAARC is doing what we can to keep our community safe. Thank you for your understanding.
