Florida, Clearwater Amateur Radio Society

The Clearwater Amateur Radio Society, Inc. is an Amateur Radio club based in Pinellas County Florida for over sixty years.. CARS members meet the second Thursday each month (7:30 PM at the Clearwater Fire Department Training Academy) to discuss Club business and activities. Most meetings include a presentation on an Amateur Radio topic of interest. The club sponsors the TampaBay area's only FREE Amateur Radio License Testing. The CARS-K4JMH Repeater System operates on four different bands (2 meters (VHF), 1.25 meters (222 MHz), 70 cm (UHF) and 23 cm (1.2 GHz)) and provides "end2end communications coverage" for Pinellas County Hams. CARS members provide Event Communications support for local charity walk-a-thons, runs and bicycle events and actively participate in the National Weather Service SKYWARN severe weather spotter program. Other CARS events include Amateur Radio Contesting, ARRL Field Day and Winter Field Day and Radio Fox Hunting.
