SOBARS - K6QM

South Bay Amateur Radio Society
c/o Norman Park Center
270 F Street
Chula Vista CA 91910



SOBARS is an active ham radio club with members from San Diego, National City, La Mesa, Chula Vista, Imperial Beach, Bonita and San Ysidro, California.
Our club callsign, K6QM, honors the memory of longtime SOBARS member John Weiting, who became a Silent Key in 1998. The logo at the top of this page is that of the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the national organization of amateur radio operators, headquartered in Newington, Connecticut.

SOBARS is affiliated with the ARRL. SOBARS meets the first Thursday of each month at the Norman Park Center, 270 "F" Street in Chula Vista. Meetings start at 7:00 PM and always feature a guest presentation. Refreshments are served at the break and we're out by 9:00, when the center closes. Voting members pay annual dues of $10.00 to support the club's activities, but there is no need to be a member (or even be a ham) to attend the meeting. All are welcome.

We have two "nets" on Tuesday night.  We hold a 2-meter net at 1900 (PT) on the SOBARS repeater, 146.085 + (100.0 P/L).  Then at 1930, we hold a 20-meter net on 14.227-14.230 kHz USB.  The control operators do not like you to "kerchunk" the repeater. If you transmit to see whether your radio is working, please ID. Net control is Dick Cupp, K6SJA, for both nets.
