Our Clubhouse houses multiple HF radios on 3 large antennas mounted on our tower. In addition we have started an AREDN Mesh system with 360deg coverage from our tower, a Winlink VHF Groundstation, and an APRS iGate. Finally, we are building an AMSAT/ARISS ground station on site at the Clubhouse. The club operates three repeaters in the Fort Worth Area (147.28, 224.42, 442.20 - PL110.9)
