Club funds pay for club insurance, ARRL club dues, site rental for repeaters, telephone service for the club autopatches, services to members, distribution of Intertie information, postage and reproduction costs. The maintenance of club operated repeaters is carried out by the clubs technical committee. Members on the committee are well versed not only in radio repair, but also must have experience in digital logic, systems integration, and electronic system design. The complexity of a multi point, interconnecting radio system requires wide experience in all these disciplines. Associate membership provides a certificate of membership, and periodic newsletters.
Full membership provides a certificate of membership, autopatch access, and periodic newsletters.
