is a local area Amateur Radio club, whose purpose is to provide
a public service to the general public, in the form of providing two-way radio communications in the event of a disaster.

In practice BRARA provides, or helps to provide, two-way radio communications during events such as Cancer Walk-A-Thons, Bike-A-Thons, Bike Races/Tours, Parades, and other public events, where they can use crowd control, as in parades, traffic control, as in helping local authorities with keeping participants safe during their event, and maybe reporting who's first, second, etc, in an event to the race coordinator for example, and also for things like helping to locate missing children for example, as I had helped in one of those types of cases, and reporting that a group of us had located one of th emissing children, etc.

General information

The Black River Amateur Radio Association - BRARA normally meets on the first Tuesday of the month, in Medford, WI, on the lower level, sometimes referred to as the basement, of the Sheriff's Department annex to the courthouse, at 7:00 P.M., or so, at 224 South 2nd Street, in Medford, WI. The Black River Amateur Radio Association - BRARA also has a 2 Meter repeater on 147.750/147.150 MHZ, with a PL of 114.8, and the BRARA also holds an A.R.E.S. Net, or Amateur Radio Emergency Service Net, on Wednesday evenings, starting about 8:30 P.M. or so, and the PL is disabled during the net, so anyone using a transceiver that doesn't have PL, or if someone doesn't know how to set the PL to 114.8, can check in without using PL.
