The Antietam Radio Association sponsors four nets that address a variety of interests. All licensed amateurs are welcome to participate:
ARES NET
The monthly Washington County ARES FM Net is held on the last Thursday of each month at 7:00 PM. It is held on the 146.94 repeater, PL tone 100.0.
ARES FUSION NET
ARES FUSION NET follows the monthly ARES net at 7:30 PM and is held on the 447.975 W3CWC repeater. The Fusion net uses Yaesu’s C4FM 4-level FSK Technology to transmit digital voice and gives net participants the chance to practice using this mode and exercise their Fusion equipment.

Held each Wednesday at 8:00 PM on the 147.09 repeater (PL tone 100.0), it offers weekly updates of club news and activities and the chance to chat with other club members.
The SIX METER NET
This net is a more informal net that follows the Four States Net. It is held weekly at about 8:30 PM on 50.151 MHZ USB and is hosted by Herm, K2AVA, to give participants the chance to exercise their 6 meter equipment.
