Stanwood - Camano Amateur Radio Club SCARC
KC7MAP
SCARC of Washington
was founded in 1989 by local amateur radio operators, often called "hams", the
Stanwood Camano Amateur Radio Club has over 40 members from the area and is
growing. It is an open Amateur Radio
club, supporting the communities of Stanwood and Camano Island, Washington. The
Club was named a "Special Service Club" in 1994 because of its emergency
communications programs and participation in the ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency
Services), as well as its community involvement, technical education classes,
and new ham recruitment and training. "Ham" are radio hobbyists licensed by the
Federal Communications Commission to experiment with and operate radios on
certain specifically assigned frequencies. Under certain conditions, hams are
able to communicate worldwide with small portable radio stations, and are known
internationally for the assistance they render in relaying messages into and out
of Disaster stricken areas. SCARC
volunteer and support our Local Schools, Fire and Police departments. In
emergencies, we assist with the EOC (emergency Operations Centers). In 1994 a
team of SCARC members supported the Entiat Fires of Eastern Washington and during
2006-2007 winter, our support assisted the EOC and Red Cross with communications
at various locations around the community. These are just some of the emergency
events the SCARC supported!
The SCARC club monitors 147.57 MHz and any ham is welcome to join in the general conversation. A directed net meeting is held every Monday night, at 8:00 PM local time. The net meeting is held in two parts. The first part is an ARES net, and the general club net follows immediately. The club call sign is KC7MAP. A very informal net is held around 0830 Monday and Wednesday on 24.980 MHz . This is generally run QRP. After the regular 147.57 MHz net, some of us have been exercising 10, 15, 20, and 40 meters.
