DELAR
The “Monday Night
Net”
Every Monday evening at 8 PM local time,
members of DELARA (and any licensed ham)
get together for our weekly net on the 145.17
repeater. This is a laid-back gathering,
discussing a topic picked by a volunteer net
control operator. It’s a great way to check in
with your friends and just enjoy a relaxed chat
on a wide variety of topics.
You can volunteer to be a net control - it’s
easy! Contact Larry or Dave on our “Contact
Us” page.

Activities
DELARA is a busy, well-rounded organization. We enjoy our club meetings (click here for our meeting information) and we enjoy our weekly
“Monday Night Net”. Each net is hosted by a volunteer operator (Hint- if you’re in DELARA, sign up!!) and is a laid-back, conversational
discussion of the week’s topic. Topics can range from “your favorite HF contest rig,” to “What are you planting in your garden?” Our nets are
open to all so please take this as an invitation, and check in!
DELARA - a Special Service
Club
The American Radio Relay League
(ARRL) is the national organization
for amateur radio. The League
encourages and supports local
amateur radio clubs as the best
way to promote our hobby.
DELARA has been a Special
Service club for a number of years.
In addition to great company and
friendships, the club offers
information and activities for
everyone ranging from a
prospective or brand new ham
(including license testing) to the
seasoned veteran (Contest Team,
ARES and other high-end
activities.)
We’re proud of this designation,
and we credit the wide spectrum of
expertise from our members!
For the latest meeting information,
and a schedule of topics, please
take a look at the latest DELARA
NEWS (link on the front page).
Meetings
DELARA members get together every month
to hear a speaker, discuss future plans (such
as our Field Day efforts), trade radio gear, or
even take a field trip!
Our meeting place will be fluid after
extensive renovation was started at the
Red Cross chapter we called home.
Typically they are being held at the
downtown Delaware Public Library.
Highlights have included presentations by
professional tower climbers, R/C aircraft
hobbyists, various computer experts, radio
and accessory builders and many more.
Topics may range from restoring a WWII B-17
bomber to working contacts through ham
radio satellites. We’ve even had a movie
premier!
One of the things that makes our club so great
is the broad base of knowledge from our
members. From retired college professors
(yes, we really do have a space scientist) to
robotics maintainers at a large brewery to
producers of miniaturized electronic
components we probably have someone who
can help you with your latest concerns!
