Nets

MARC Nets

MARC holds two nets each week, and all radio amateurs are invited to participate.

• Sunday 8:00 PM, General Information Net: We ask participants about their week in ham radio and their thoughts on a question of interest to the ham community. The net is held on our primary W5MRC FM repeater, 146.740 MHz, offset -0.600 MHz, tone 110.9 Hz.

• Monday 8:30 PM, Simplex Net: See how far your VHF radio can go without a repeater, along with general discussion. This is usually held on 146.540 MHz, although we may move a little bit up or down in frequency if necessary. Since this is simplex, no offset or tone are required.
