835 on the 805 Net. Daily at 8:35am
At 8:35 am each morning we gather together on the Overlook Mountain Amateur Radio Club repeater (the ‘805’) to ‘keep together while staying apart’. Amateur radio is the original social media with no internet required. Check their excellent web site.
OMARC Daily Check-in Net. Daily at 6:30pm
An informal discussion net. Every day at 1830 ET.
UNDR Net. Mondays at 8:00pm
The UNDR Group promotes community readiness via amateur radio. Every Monday at 8:00 PM on the WA2MJM 146.805 MHz repeater.
UNDR sponsors short-duration gatherings at local state parks in Northern Dutchess and Ulster counties, based on their training and education curriculum. A calendar of past and upcoming UNDR Events can be found on their Facebook page.
Presentation. Tuesdays, probably once monthly. We hope to share this schedule soon.
(More information to come.)
Tech Net. Thursdays at 8:00pm
This net is run by Dave, K2JLV OMARC President, and is a technical discussion net for everyone. Sometimes Dave brings topics to the net, sometimes participants bring topics to the net but it is always an excellent discussion and learning opportunity. If you have something you want to ask about or talk about, The Thursday net is a great place to ask questions, open a discussion, or just generally have a nice chat with people from all walks of life. We hope you will join us in the fun.
Science and Technology Net. Sundays at 8:00pm
This new incarnation of the Sunday night net is hosted by Neil W2NDG and Jim K2BHM. Not limited to radio, you might find them talking about lots of wild topics.
