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 teach. 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 with portable equipment, help build an emergency communications mesh network of microwave nodes, help the National Weather Service get "eyes on the ground" for weather reporting with Skywarn, or any number of other activities, there’s someone to chat with...

[ News From The Tech Committee ]
448.275 machine is out of service and being used for bench testing. Currently we have been running this machine on the bench and testing so we can hopefully prevent future failures of any of our repeaters. Currently we have identified a couple of weak points that are being addressed. Also, we will be implementing auto-matic thermal shutdowns on the repeaters. Once the thermal shutdowns are in hand they will be installed in the 449.600 machine first. Then the 147.120 and finally the 448.275 machine. Within in the next few weeks we will be taking down both linked repeaters simultaneously for tuning the duplexers...
