Welcome to the LCARA Homepage

Lorain County Amateur Radio Association

The LCARA is an ARRL-recognized special service club.

Meetings are on the third Friday of every month at the American Red Cross Building, 2929 West River Rd N., Elyria, Ohio 44035

The meetings begin at 7:30 PM and are open to all. You do not have to be a ham to attend. Our officers and members welcome you.

Our repeaters are open and we operate eight nets per week on 147.15+, plus any emergency or Skywarn nets.

We sponsor one amateur radio exam per month.

Our newsletter, The Printed Circuit, was awarded an Honorable Mention in the ARRL Ohio Section Fourth Annual Newsletter Contest.

Lorain County  is on the shores of Lake Erie in the north central area

Attention-----

I suppose I owe some sort of apology for not keeping this site up-to-date. In most cases an excuse only satisfies the person making it, but I am stretched way beyond my limits. I have had many personal challenges and also other commitments that leave me absolutely no time to continue my duties for the LCARA which includes the maintenance of this website, as well as editing the newsletter. If there is anyone who would like to take on these tasks, please contact any of the officers. Regards, Carl W8KRF
