The Chicago FM Club hosts nightly Nets on our mighty 2m, 1.25m and 70 cm WA9ORC Repeaters.
Centrally located 500 feet up near Chicago’s Lakefront, our repeaters cover most of Chicagoland. Out of town? All repeaters are accessible via Allstar; Our 440 Repeater adds EchoLink.
All licensed Amateur Radio Operators are welcome to participate in any of the CFMC Nets. If you like what you hear, consider becoming a member.
CFMC has opportunities for new Net Control Stations. Without an NCS, there is no Net… Why become a Net Control Operator?
- Sharpen your Operator Skills
- More interaction with other Hams = More Fun
- Give back to the Club and Amatuer Radio
If interested in becoming a Net Control Station for any of the CFMC Nets, contact our Net Coordinators using this Email Link: wa9orc@gmail.com.
