Central Coast Amateur Radio Club News – August 20, 2023

The club rooms at Kariong are open on Saturdays from 10:30am. As always, members and visitors are most welcome.
Next Saturday (August 26), the club will be holding an un-themed Show and tell starting at 11am at the
Kariong club rooms. As always, people are welcome to bring along some photos on a USB stick to show on our data projector. Our show and tell events have been very popular with many interesting items on display including some that have nothing to do with radio. Members and visitors are encouraged to come along and show your stuff or just enjoy the goodies on display.
At the next Business Meeting, in September, the club will be appointing sub-committees. Please consider
volunteering and help with the running of your club.
At the VK2RAG Somersby repeater site, the D-Star, Rad-Net DMR and 2m Echolink services are fully
functional. The 23cm repeater is currently off-air, being replaced.
The club Web SDR at Somersby. Websdr.ccarc.org.au is configured to listen on 6 metres, 2 metres, 70
centimetres and 23 centimetres.
The Morning Tea Net is run on weekdays at 10:00am and the Weekly net on Thursday at 8:00pm.
Both nets are run on on the VK2RAG repeater – 146.725MHz with a 91.5Hz sub-audible tone, and on the
CCARCNSW and HAM Echolink conferences.
The Thursday evening net is also live video-streamed on the club’s facebook page.
You can find out more about the CCARC, our upcoming social events and other details that we can’t tell you about here on the web at ccarc.org.au, by phone on 02 4340 2500, or on social media by searching for “Central Coast Amateur Radio Club”.
