About Us
The Mercer County Amateur Radio Group,
KC9EHE,
was founded on May 15, 2003, in Mercer County, Illinois. Our main
objective is, "To increase
emergency preparedness and awareness in our communities." We are here
to serve the emergency communication needs of Mercer County, Illinois,
and any surrounding counites needing assistance in events such as
severe weather, blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, or other
emergencies.
We also assist Amateur Radio Operators in our area, and those wishing to become hams.
We meet every month, at the Viola Village Hall. Everyone is welcome.
Next meeting: Sunday, August 7, 4:30pm
Weekly Net: Every Sunday, now on 145.200 simplex, at 8:30pm
Severe Weather nets will be held on the 146.88- repeater, in Eldridge.
