2-Meter & 10-Meter Nets

SEVERE WEATHER NET. Something new for 2004? Well not really -- the Severe Weather Net is the renewal of the efforts by Dick Stone, KB4YYI, who served as second-in-command in the Nelson County Emergency Management Agency. During periods of threatening weather, Dick conducted a 2-meter net, taking reports and relaying them to the NCEMA public service network and the National Weather Service.

KARS and NCEMA have worked together whenever severe weather approaches the community. Reports from stations in western parts of Nelson County are always appreciated.

The Severe Weather Net takes place on the 145.47 repeater.

2-METER NET. The Bardstown 145.47 repeater is the home to the weekly KARS 2-Meter Net every Sunday night at 9 pm local time. This informal net is a sort of "meeting-on-the-air" for local hams, and serves as a way to pass along information of interest to amateurs in the community.

10-METER NET. The KARS 10-Meter Net is a tradition that dates back to the Novice Enhancement of 1987. Novice license holders were given voice privileges on the 10-meter band, as well as 223 MHz and 1296 MHz. Prior to the establishment of a 2-meter repeater, the 10-meter net was the only place for local hams to have an on-the-air gathering.

The net meets each Sunday night at 9:30 pm on 28.380 USB.
