PCARS Net Night at the Club 5/28/26 @6:00pm
Tempest Fugit – It’s that time of the month again! Thursday, May 27th, 8:00PM PLEASE join us for the PCARS weekly 2-meter net on the K8IV repeater; 146.895 Mhz with a PL of 118.8 (you can also check in via the K8BF-L Echolink node). Never checked in before? NOW’S the TIME! Been awhile since your last check-in? Get your callsign back in our log! It’s a GREAT NET for a GREAT CLUB!
As an added feature – once a month we gather at the clubsite for some good fellowship and usually some good food (usually pizza). Please consider this your personal invitation to show up and hang out with us! I’ll be there to open the doors at approximately 6:00PM. We’ll hang out till about 10 – or maybe just a bit earlier (hey – I’m getting old!). Bring a friend.
73, See you there, or on the air!

Hello PCARS DXers & Contesters:
Here is a one more friendly reminder that the DX/Contesting Special Interest Group meeting will take place Tuesday evening, May 26th at 7PM at PCARS World Famous headquarters.
We will be discussing our participation in the ARRL International Digital Contest that is coming up on the weekend of June 6-7. We will also discuss the possibility of taking part in the newly added Club QSO Party that is scheduled to take place on June 20-21.
