Franklin County Ohio ARES Weekly Nets
With the exception of our monthy in-person meetings, Franklin County Ohio ARES holds weekly nets over the air to allow amateurs to check their radio gear, and to participate in the weekly topic. Topics range from discussions of Franklin County Ohio ARES business, disaster response preparedness, and other Amateur Radio related topics.
Nets are held on Wednesday evenings at 8:00 pm, local time on our K8DDG/R repeater (147.060 MHz +600 khz), or on our backup repeater, K8DDG/R (444.275 Mhz +5 Mhz). A PL tone of 94.8 Hz is required to access our repeater systems.
If you wish to become a Net Control Station for our weekly nets, contact our Net Manager, Kevin O’Harra, KD8IIB.
