As a Member of CHARL
Here are some things you should remember:
The NTC requires all radio amateurs to be a member of an accredited amateur radio club.
However, being a member DOES NOT give you a license to operate a transceiver. Licensure examinations for amateur radio operators are conducted by the NTC regularly.
The amateur frequency, as assigned by the NTC is from 144.000 to 146.000 MHz. It is therefore understood that NO COMMERCIAL TRAFFIC shall be transmitted on these frequencies. Even a bigger NO is the relay of COMMERCIAL TRAFFIC through the repeater.
We have our nightly net every 8:30 pm on frequency 145.000 MHz minus 600 KHz duplex with 88.5 Hz tone. Radio nets are a kind of roll calls of amateur radio stations in the area. You are invited to join the net every evening.
