 PCARS Flex Net

Flex Net is a monthly on-air activity designed to encourage experimentation and operating fun for Amateur Radio operators of all experience levels. The net meets at 8:00 PM on the second Wednesday of each month using local amateur radio frequencies, with the mode and frequency band changing from month to month.

Flex Net gives members the opportunity to try new bands and modes, sharpen operating skills, and make contacts with fellow club members. Contacts made during Flex Net may also be applied toward the club’s A–Z Award, earned by working club members whose callsigns end in specific letters of the alphabet.

Whether you’re exploring an unfamiliar mode or chasing that next letter, Flex Net offers a relaxed and flexible way to get on the air and stay active.

For time and frequency of the next Flex Net, check the latest issue of the Radiogram.
