Read MoreIt’s that time of the month again!!! Our regularly scheduled meeting is Monday June 16th at 7:00 pm in the Social Hall at the Independant Hose Company building on Baughmans Ln. We will be finalizing our plans for field day as well as our upcoming contests. There will also be someone visiting from the Frederick News Post to gather information about our club and hobby. We want to have as many members there as possible so they can get the full FARC experience and see what Ham radio is all about. Hope to see you there!

Read MoreAt this month’s meeting we discussed plans for the 2014 Field Day. Once again we will be meeting in the parking lot at Wal-Mart most likely out by the street directly across from Ruby Tuesday. We are planning to have a 2 meter simplex contest in September. The contest is open to all hams and we will be posting more details soon. We are also planning a Fox Hunt for October with more details coming soon. I would like to thank Lou Popowsky KB3RNT for his presentation on batteries. Lou gave us a wealth of information on a variety of batteries inclding these two handouts.
