Our group was approved to purchase a Yaesu System Fusion repeater as part of their promotional event. We should have the new repeater in the next couple months as Yaesu is on a backlog with this program. This new repeater will do both C4FM DIGITAL, and analog so no one will have to change their radio setup to use the new repeater. For info visit YAESU website and look up System Fusion for details!
Reminder that the NWMO ARES® Group meets this Saturday 9 am at the Cameron Public Safety building.
Wishing everyone in the group a Safe and Happy New Year! Hope to see you at our January 10th meeting.
Here is the link to the contest information, the band has been doing pretty good the last few weeks so give it a try.
