August 15, 2020 : Significant changes were made to the repeater site, as all of our equipment was moved over to the new repeater shack. All machines (repeaters, computers, mesh nodes, etc) are functioning as before with the exception of the UHF D-Star “B” module. A receive signal poor reception problem had been noted, and will require investigation. This repeater has been turned off for the time being. Once repairs/adjustments are made, we will re-activate this Module.
Hello all, with the recent changes made by Yahoo! in regards to the Yahoo Groups, we have started a new project on Groups.io that will maintain all of the functionality that Yahoo! Groups provided, with some new features, and is easier to use. You do not require a Yahoo! specific email address in order to sign-up for a Groups.io group.
Check us out at carcmembers.groups.io and subscribe. Due to SPAM, as well as the nature of the information this group will hold, ALL membership request will require Approval. Our Admin will do their best to ensure a fast and accurate response.
