Contact: Don Davidson, President,

gestions for presentations can be sent
to Doug Farrell at dfarrell2@yahoo.
com or brought up at a meeting. Come
and join us at 6:30 p.m. to meet the club
members.
The Sun City Amateur Radio Club or
SCARS maintains the Sun City repeater
on the 70cm band at 441.625 MHz, plus
dup, pl tone 103.5. This repeater is open
for use by any licensed amateur operator.
We also hold fox hunts on the second
Saturday of each month, where we track
down a hidden transmitter with direc-
tional antennas and ham radios. This
sharpens our skills in a potential rescue
situation. We meet at the Oaks parking
lot before the hunt to give the fox time
to hide and set up.
Amateur radio operators consistently
give back to the community by aiding
and supporting the authorities in emer-
gency situations, and volunteering our
communications skills to other events
in the area. Come and find out what we
are doing to provide communications
during emergencies. We can also help
get your weather radio programmed,
just contact us via the web or email us
at
.
Membership is open to anyone in Sun
City that has an interest in Amateur
Radio—you do not have to be a licensed
ham to participate in club activities.
