Check here for latest information

The next meeting of EAARS will be on January 17, 2012. This is our annual election of officers meeting. It will be held at the La Paloma restaurant in Solomon. Reservation for restaurant to begin at 6 PM. This is the evening that we will have the drawing for a AES gift certificate for those that have paid their 2012 dues by December 15th. Come on out and enjoy a nice meal and say hello to all. Merry Xmas/Happy New Year. See ya on January 17.

The club has recently installed an IRLP and EchoLink node on the stand alone Heliograph 146.90 repeater. See main page for a link to more information, and a quick start guide to using the system. Currently it is available ONLY on the stand alone 146.90 repeater. Plans are to be able to switch it to the EAARS network repeater system as needed, but will not be permanent on the linked system.

Repeater status seems to change quickly. There has been receive sensitivity problems at Pinal repeater at times. Also a sensitivity problem at jacks Pk. An update will be made at our next meeting.

The new 147.08 Repeater on Mule Mountain appears to be working as planned. We have had several positive reports of the increased coverage. Everyone enjoy.

Past copies of EAARS newsletters are available on line. See main page for link.



The Saguaro NTS net continues to be held each evening at 6:30 pm. Those wishing to learn about passing formal message traffic are encouraged to check in to the net. Obviously they want people to check in and actually participate in handling traffic, not to just CHECK IN and say NO TRAFFIC.

See main page for link to bulk 7QP photos, and other general interest photos. This is a work in progress.
