If you have a truck and want an antenna mount that is of excellent quality and does not require you drilling a hole in the roof this may be a good option for you.
After discovering my new work truck was an all-aluminum body I was a bit hesitant to put a large 5/8 wave NMO mount in the roof. It also had a ton of airbags mounted on the sides and it looked like a PITA to get around them. I then discovered this:
Beginning this Sunday (March 29, 2020), BARC will operate a weekly net at 7 pm every Sunday. We will use BARC’s K1PBO 2-meter repeater at 146.955, - shift, CTCSS of 88.5.
The net will be open to all BARC members as well as anyone else who wishes to check in.
Why weekly? Because we are in a situation that requires social distancing. Many of our members may not have a ready means to stay in touch with the Club or its members as a group. A weekly net will provide members that social contact.
We are in the process of adding AllStar Link nodes to the 146.955 K1PBO repeater. This will be in testing along with several other changes this fall and hopefully in service around the first of the year.
This will allow linking to any other AllStar node and a DMR and EchoLink Bridge This will allow for increased connectivity of the repeater.
The BARC 146.955 repeater will be taken off the air for maintenance around noon on Saturday, August 10th. We hope to have it back up and running by dusk.
The Northeast Amateur Radio Club will be operating National Lighthouse Weekend, Saturday & Sunday, August 3-4, 2019 at Highland Lighthouse, Truro, MA. Join us on the air!
