The Playground Amateur Radio Club conducts a net each Sunday night at 7:30 PM CST. This typically takes place on 146.790- 100Hz but also occurs on the 444.450 +, 100 Hz tone K4FWB Repeater. Please watch the calendar for when that will occur and check it frequently! Be sure to click on the date and more details will pop up!

This is an informal net. Members and visitors alike are asked to check in and share some of their experiences with the group. Maybe you have a question to submit or perhaps you have the answer to another’s question. Either way, your input is valued and appreciated. Also, you will have the opportunity to sell your used equipment or buy someone else’s during the Swap portion of the net. So, take a few minutes, stop by the frequency, and share some of your week with us. If you are interested in being a net control operator and are a member of the club, please contact us at: PARCFWB@Gmail.com
