Club Description: The North Hills Radio Club (NHRC) was organized in 1957 and has been in continuous operation for more than 64 years, serving communities in the greater Sacramento area. The primary purpose of the NHRC is to foster, encourage, and promote interest in amateur radio, and to further promote the general public interest in radio communication. The NHRC encourages the exchange of ideas and technical information, the processes, and techniques of radio communication. The NHRC sponsors weekly nets, monthly membership meetings, and several yearly events intended to promote education and communication among amateur radio operators as well as public awareness of our activities and our usefulness during emergencies. Our nets, meetings, and events are open to all amateur radio operators as well as to the general public.
The NHRC hosts five nets on four nights on its K6IS Repeater System. These include:
- Mondays at 7:00 PM and 8:00 PM.
- Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8:00 PM.
- Saturday at 7:45 PM with a quick 2-meter pre-net on the repeater to promote the Saturday evening 75-meter net on HF at 8:00 PM, on 3918.5 kilohertz, lower side band.
Nets are open to any licensed amateur radio operator, and you do not need to be a member to participate. For specific dates and/or more information on the net schedule, topics, or club events, please visit our website at www.k6is.org.
