The Superstition Amateur Radio Club has something for everyone - whatever your amateur radio interests are, you will find someone in the club to exchange ideas with, learn from, and or teach someone something new. Whether you want to learn CW (Morse code) and work other continents. Build and tune your own antennas, climb mountains and talk to other people around the world with portable equipment with Summits On The Air (SOTA). How about helping others build an Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network using 2.4 GHz , 3.3 GHz and or 5.8 GHz microwave nodes here in Mesa and the surrounding communities. Not only is it a lot of fun to build, you will be able to help out in case of an emergency with the services that you can help provide.
You can even help out the National Weather Service get “eyes on the ground” for weather reporting with Skywarn. Or any number of other activities with the new digital modes of communications that we as Amateur Radio Operators have available to us. You will find there’s always someone that you can chat with while you are learning something new with your Amateur Radio License...

[ News From The Tech Committee ]
Fellow club members, as most of you should know by now, the tech team was out at the Stone Castle site on Saturday morning. We removed all of the equipment to install a new network rack that will now house all of the repeater equipment. As you all are also aware, the 147.12 Fission repeater up at Usery mountain failed about a month ago so we reprogrammed the 448.275 repeater and put it in its place until the repeater gets back from repairs. While at the Stone Castle site we decided to put our back up repeater on UHF online at the Stone Castle and move the Yaesu back up to the Usery site, so both 147.120 analog and 448.275 digital are back up and running now. We ran into problems at the Stone Castle with the backup repeater and a programming problem. We did not have the means to program it at the site as our tech person who does that was not available to meet us up there, so the 449.600, Echolink, and Allstarlink are all offline at this time. We hope to get everything back to normal by Sunday afternoon. If not, these modes may be down for several days and not linked.
Just an update: The backup repeater is back online along at the Stone Castle sounding great. The Echolink and Allstarlink are still currently offline. The Tech Team is still working on getting that back online.
Thanks Again.
Steve Estes KB7KWK.
President and Tech Team Member
[ News From The Communications Committee ]
The Communications Committee has been making some changes to the club website. The last effort was to clean up a lot of the old code and consolidate some of the duplicate banner ads. We are still working on getting the club sales page going again. We are looking for a way for club members to be able to post their own ads
The Officers and Board members would like to thank Dale N7QJK for all of his hard work and the time he puts into keeping our website's looking good and working so well. We all hope the changes will help get clubs news and information out to the visitors of our website's better than it had been in the past.
