- CARS NET
The CARS net is a social device held each Thursday night at 9pm on the 146.880 MHz repeater. Any amateur radio operator within the repeater’s coverage area is encouraged to join in with the fun. The purpose of this net is to have fun and fellowship but it is
also used for passing NTS traffic from time to time. Depending on who is net control, we might even do a little training exercise and interesting trivia questions are at times posed. CARS Net Preamble
