Club Station

The Crossroads of America Amateur Radio Ladies Association (CAARLA) has been issued a club station license with the call sign K9CAT.  This call sign was formerly held by our 1st President, Natalie Andrews, who became a Silent Key on July 24, 2003.  The club call sign will be used at special events or other activities to promote the goals of the organization.

Weekly Net

CAARLA holds a weekly 2-meter net every Thursday evening at 2100 local time (0200 UTC Friday during the winter or 0100 UTC Friday during the summer) on the 146.685 MHz repeater (PL 151.4 Hz).  All YL's and their guests (OM's) are invited to participate.
