IVARC has scheduled to be part of The Labor Day Festival and Parade, and the Barter Faire. The IVARC Communication Hub will be set up Saturday Sept 5 and Sunday Sept 6 from 12-4pm and will participate in the parade on Monday September 7. We encourage people to come out to the festival and check out the skill and fun of radio operations. Come see our Illinois Valley resources for emergency and disaster communication services in and outside the valley. We will also have a booth at the Barter Faire on Saturday, September 26. 2-way radios, free trainings and programming of Baofeng radios will be available at all events and meetings.
We have three nets every Monday @ 7pm starting on our IVARC GMRS repeater 462.600 Mhz PL 141.3 on GMRS channel 17, then we move to Simplex or radio to radio on FRS3 and MURS3 for the Channel 3 project, allowing unlicensed operators to participate. Since it is off the repeater and on Simplex, it relies on relays from other operators,
allowing people to find out who they can hear and contact during an emergency and who they will need to relay information through. It’s great practice and anyone can join the Channel 3 project.
IVARC meetings are every other month on the 2nd Tuesday 5pm @ Taylor’s in Cave Junction. Our next meeting will be 5pm Tuesday October 13th at Taylor’s. We provide radios for a donation of $40, which have the IVARC programming installed that include 100* local channels including all Simplex, fire, Sheriff, and more. If you would like a free training, need technical assistance, or have questions, email I[email protected].
