May SPARK Posted by N8FQ on Sunday, May 5, 2013 @ 11:53 AM Click to read! Tulip Time is underway! Signup info is in the newsletter. April SPARK Posted by N8FQ on Sunday, March 31, 2013 @ 10:20 PM Click and read! March SPARK Posted by N8FQ on Sunday, March 10, 2013 @ 11:56 AM Available here! Two hamfests in the area this month: Marshall on the 16th (same day as Skywarn training), and Lowell on the 30th! Repeaters back online Posted by N8FQ on Tuesday, March 5, 2013 @ 4:41 PM Power has been restored on Water Tank Hill, and the repeaters are back to normal operation. Grand Haven repeaters offline Posted by N8FQ on Monday, March 4, 2013 @ 11:11 PM Due to a water main break, the road and power lines on Water Tank Hill have been washed out. This means we have lost power to the 145.49 and 443.775 repeaters, and currently have no way to access the site. The 70cm machine is off the air, and the 2m repeater is on battery power. It is unknown how long that will last. We will post updated info as it becomes available! In the meantime, we suggest 146.550 MHz simplex as an alternative.

January SPARK Posted by N8FQ on Saturday, December 29, 2012 @ 2:50 PM The first newsletter of 2013 is now available! December SPARK Posted by N8FQ on Friday, December 14, 2012 @ 1:09 AM Late, but oh well... Don't forget the NOARC Christmas Party on December 20 at the Spring Lake District Library! Repeater maintenance Posted by N8FQ on Tuesday, December 4, 2012 @ 7:29 PM The Grand Haven 145.49 repeater will be taken offline this Friday or Saturday for maintenance on the receiver. It is expected to be off-air for about a week. While it is off, we recommend that area hams use Hank W8GVK's 70cm repeater, located at the same site. Frequency is 443.775, 5 MHz positive offset with a PL of 94.8. Incedentally, Hank is the one who will be doing the work on our repeater. Thanks! Add post |
