As of January 1, 2024 all future posts will be coming from the moarc.net website as we have merged with them and will be sustaining that website going forward. This site will stay up for historical and archival data for now, but that will eventually stop.
Thank you for all your support. It has been a wonderful time. Looking forward to the new future as a combined club with MOARC.

The MOARC/CNYARC Repeater 145.210 with a PL 71.9 is back on the air. Take the time to try it out again. We know the footprint is reaching Rome NY and other areas so give it a try have a QSO with a friend or whomever might be listening.
The repeater is identifying as W2MO/R2 and is working on both Analog and Digital (Yaesu Fusion). Let’s get some use out of it again now that it’s up on the air and in a new location. This will be the new location for the repeater the antenna isn’t very high, but the coverage is decent and the antenna placement is only temporary right now.

As of January 1st, 2023 the Central New York Amateur Radio Club and the Madison-Oneida Amateur Radio Club will have merged into one club. That club will continue to be known as the Madison-Oneida Amateur Radio Club. Both clubs will be united under that name. Both clubs made this decision throughout 2023 as they have been meeting together and working toward that common goal.
The reason for joining the two clubs was mutual needs and the ability to grow a stronger, healthier club from the two. This provides a stronger group of radio operators for multiple event handling, ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Services), and RACES (Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Services).
The two clubs are looking forward to the new year and combining our strengths into one stronger healthier club. This will be an interesting and wonderful year and we look forward to having you join us for a meeting and seeing what we are all about.

Hams are needed for the Tromptown Run full and half marathon on Sunday, September 24th. We will meet near the Deruyter High School at 7 AM. The “official” website is tromptownmarathon.com.
This is an outdoor event, rain or shine. Please dress for the weather. Bring provisions, food, water, etc.
We will use 2 meters, the frequency has not yet been decided. Mobile radios with some power and a good antenna are helpful, but we can find a spot for you if all you have is an HT.
Please contact me, kb2luv@arrl.net or 315-395-7640 if you can help. We
could use a dozen hams to do this right. More information will be
provided as the date gets closer.
This is a fun event and people are grateful for our help. Thanks!
