 Welcome to ECARS 
We welcome you to the East Coast Amateur Radio Service web site.

ECARS began operation in 1968 as an Amateur Radio public service net for mobile operators on 7.255 MHz.

You need not be an ECARS member or mobile to check into the nets. We look forward to your checking in on 7.255 MHz.
A Look Back...

At this time of the year it is appropriate to remember where we have been and where we are going. Luke, KA1SE, begins the process with "A look back at last year & Where the Money Goes" in From the President's Shack.

Show us  Your Shack

All of us take pride in our Shack so share you pride with your fellow ECARS members. Follow the link on the left to view member's shacks.

You can send a picture of your Shack to Vince, k1ah@cox.net, for inclusion in the slide show.

Annual Meeting

The Annual Meeting Committee (Frank,N2COM, and Bob, K2IB) has found a probable location for the 2012 meeting at The Grand Hotel, in Cape May, N.J. We have not settled on a date for this get together, but are thinking of late summer or early fall, hoping that room rates will be lower at that time.

 

On-Air Business Meeting

In the meantime, we will have an official 2012 ECARS Business Meeting (i.e. Board Meeting) on 7.255 Mhz, Saturday, May 12,2012 at 10:00 A.M., in place of the usual Roll Call. Like our Net, it will be a “controlled” meeting during which ECARS members will be able to participate.

The main agenda item will be a discussion of possible dates for the Cape May meeting, and/or possible suggestions for other locations if desired.   Other agenda items as needed. Any ECARS members having suggestions for additional agenda items for this on-air meeting are asked to submit them to Luke, KA1SE, ECARS President, no later than May 1, 2012 so that we can publish the final agenda on the web site ahead of time.

With this two-part approach, approved by our Board of Directors, we can meet the requirements of the by-laws and still plan for an on-site (eyeball) get- together, hoping that enough members will plan to attend so as to make it feasible.
