Nets are perhaps the single most important aspect of Amateur Radio. It makes sense, really, when you consider that the foundation of Amateur Radio is Public Service and Communication. With that in mind, please consider joining us on an upcoming Net, won't you?
Daily
The Breakfast Club Net, meets every WEEKDAY morning on the 145.39 (- Offset, 100Hz PL) LCDRA repeater from around 7:00 AM until most times, later then 11:00 AM. This Net has been in existence since September 24, 2009 and has been a hit! That's easy to see as the net record is 75 check ins just in ONE morning!!! There are at least 250 check ins per week, and between 1,000-1,200 check ins EVERY month! In the course of a month the Breakfast Club Net consists of about 100 net control air time hours! The dead air time during the morning is now filled by an exciting fun net!
Pictures, updates, and networking on The Breakfast Club Facebook Page!!! Join Today!
Sunday
The Central Michigan Slow Scan TV Net, with your host Carl (K8YHH) meets every Sunday. If you're new to Slow Scan TV, or a Pro, you are welcome to join at 7pm on the 145.39 (- Offset, 100Hz PL) LCDRA Repeater. Click HERE to see the photos sent during the Slow Scan Net.
Monday
The Lansing ARPSC Net is held weekly on the 145.39 LCDRA Repeater. Tune in at 7pm every Monday Night to participate with your Net Control, Don McLain (KB8RAD). The Net does not take place on the third Monday of the month which is when we hold the monthly ARPSC meeting.
The purpose of the Net is to pass traffic, provide training for ARPSC members, exchange information for ARPSC members regarding activities and requirements and to be heard amongst HAM's and non-HAM's alike in the multi-county footprint of the repeater.
Tuesday
We have two Nets on Tuesday evenings, with both taking place at the same time, but on different repeaters. You are welcome to visit both.
The first is the Ladies Tea Time Net, held each Tuesday evening at 7pm on the 145.39 LCDRA Repeater. Your Net Control Operator, Julie McLain (KB8ZXR) welcomes one and all to this Net, which is primarily geared to the ladies out there. If you are a lady without a license, talk to your OM and get him to stand by while you check in 3rd party.
Yes, the guys are welcome too. Grab a nice, hot cup of tea and get in on the fun.
Second is the Quarter Century Wireless Association Net, with Net Control Operator, Don Tillitson (WB8NUS). The Net starts a 8pm and is held on the 146.70 LCDRA Repeater (- Offset, 107.2Hz PL) and is open to all licensed Amateurs.
Wednesday:
Join Don McLain KB8RAD as he carries on the tradition of the Mid-Michigan Information Net. As local hams did before the net was moved to Sunday night, the net will now meet on Wednesday nights at 8 PM. This net along with many of our other local nets can be found on the 145.39 LCDRA Repeater. You'll leave every week with an update of what's going on locally in our ham community, and a smile on your face.
Thursday
Join Matt Miller (KD8BOOS) with the MRAY Net (Michigan Radio Amateur Youth Net) at 7pm on the 145.39 LCDRA Repeater (-) offset, 100hz PL tone and hams and 3rd party stations of ALL ages are invited. Get a look at Amateur Radio through the eyes of our next generation!

Without which we would not be able to have the wonderful Net's we enjoy!
