The VHF repeater requires a 103.5 Hz tone.
User commands are available to temporarily disable the tone requirement, and it is automatically disabled while linked.
The Cuckoo Club meets each morning at 9:00 AM and is open to anyone who would like
to join in.
An ARES/RACES net is held each Tuesday night at 7:00 PM except
for the 3rd Tuesday when members meet at the EOC building at 7:00 PM.
Anyone interested in joining ARES/RACES is welcome to check in or contact
Al Hundley.
The UHF repeater is normally enabled as a conventional repeater
(without tone protection).
The VHF repeater has the capability to link with Gainesville
Missouri.
To link enter *** or to unlink enter ###. These codes work
from either the OZARC or ARCO repeaters.
