CARC Sunday Net Schedule

The Columbia Amateur Radio Club 2-meter weekly net is every Sunday at 8:30 PM local on the 147.330 repeater. See our Area Nets page for more details.

CARC Net Control Schedule

At the end of the net, the Net Controller is will need to report the following information:

• Number of check-ins
• Number of announcements (also called traffic)

If you are interested in becoming a CARC-affiliated Net Controller, please contact our Net Manager Paul, N4PRF.

Net Announcement Procedure

To improve the use of time, please announce events that are unique to the upcoming 2-4 week with the date, time and location, skipping items that repeat weekly. Gathering a list of event in advance of the net, to announce at opening and repeat at closing will expedite announcements. Remember to note announcement additions made during fills, to repeat at close.

Remember to announce that, “additional details can be found on w4cae.com.”

The webpage, W4CAE.com, is being kept up to date and is a very useful tool.  Please check it out.  If you see anything missing or incorrect on the website, please contact our Webmaster, John W4SFX, by email at [email protected] or click on the CONTACT button above or speak to any of the club officers.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this new procedure.
