Description:

 RCARA is an amateur radio club located in Ashland, Kentucky. Our members are involved in many aspects of the hobby including contesting, rag chewing, satellites, digital, and emergency communications to name a few. The club repeater, KG4DVE, operates on the frequency of 146.940 MHz with a tone of 107.2.  For the past 45 years Mon - Fri at 8:00 PM on this repeater we have hosted the Tri-State 2 Meter Net.  We have a monthly club meeting on the second Tuesday of each month at 7 PM at Bella Fonte Restaurant 1320 Carter Ave. Ashland, KY 41101. We also hold many events throughout the year including a hamfest, field day, and club dinners. We have VEC test sessions on the second Tuesday of every month at 6PM at the Bella Fonte Restaurant before the monthly meeting. The KG4DVE-10 APRS Digipeater has recently been installed to serve the area. Another new asset is the KG4DVE-11 Winlink VHF RMS Station which operates on 144.940 MHz using VARA FM. We are now on Hamclub Online. We have an Allstar RF Link on Hamshack Hotline extension 94194. Hope to meet you at our next club function.
