New 6 Month or Half Price Membership When Passing a Test
DARC has implemented a new program for people that have passed an exam at a DARC test session. This program is for those that are not current members of DARC.
For those that pass the Technician exam, they have the choice of a free 6 month membership, or a half price one year membership and a free handheld radio that is programmed with the DARC repeaters and other useful frequencies.
For those that pass tests at other levels, they are given a free 6 month DARC membership.
Parks on the Air (POTA) and BBQ Event
DARC is hosting a POTA and BBQ event on Saturday, March 21st, between 2 pm and 6 pm.
Join us for a fun afternoon learning how to do a POTA activation, making POTA contacts and enjoying a BBQ! DARC will provide all of the POTA equipment. We are asking you do not bring your own to prevent interference between the antennas and equipment. The fun will start at 2 pm – come get your POTA contacts. Food will be served at 3 pm.
The cost for the BBQ is $7.50 per person. Children under 5 are free.
