Amateur radio repeaters are radio systems used by amateur radio operators to extend the range of their transmissions. These repeaters are typically placed on high points such as mountain tops or tall buildings and are often linked to a network of other repeaters. They are used to allow two-way communication between amateur radio operators over a wide area. Amateur radio repeaters are an important part of the worldwide amateur radio community and they provide an invaluable service for the hobby.
We currently have two repeaters operating to serve the Upstate of South Carolina, and we operate a nightly directed net that is open to all licensed amateurs at 9PM on our Caesars Head repeater (W4NYK 146.610 MHz)
If you would like to help support maintenance and upgrades of the club repeaters donations can be sent directly to the repeater fund via Zelle
