Burke Amateur Radio Club

From BARC & the Amateur Radio Emergency Service®

• ​BARC and the Amateur Radio Emergency Service® (ARES®) recommend that every amateur, including new amateurs, own and operate:
  •  a 2 Meter / 70 cm Dual Band FM Transceiver “mobile radio” with 25-50W of output power.
    Two examples:  click here and here.
  • a 25A power supply or, possibly even better for EmComm, a gel cell battery and smart charger.
  • an outside “dual band” antenna for the house
  • a mobile dual band mobile antenna (magnet mounted?) for your vehicle.  Think about garages and drive-thrus when buying this.
  • Please check out and support BARC member Terry Burton, W4ALK, and his business American Radio Supply at http://www.americanradiosupply.com/  Terry has a nice supply of good quality antennas for home and car plus coax, connectors, and MANY other products.
