The WARA 146.64 MHz repeater will be used as a backup repeater for two public service events in October:
- October 6, from 7 AM to 2 PM: Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Cycle for Life
- October 27, from 7 AM to 2 PM: Ashland Sporting Association Half Marathon
From the communications organizer for both events, Mark Richards, K1MGY:
Standby use means that the WARA 2M repeater may be used in the event our main system fails, or for overflow traffic. Should the system be required, announcements will be made. A closed net will NOT be conducted. During breaks in communications, stations wishing to make brief calls are welcome.
We recognize that use of these resources is a privilege and extend gratitude on behalf of the two organizations to WARA for generously extending a hand.
