LRA Christmas Party

Christmas comes but once a year. Let’s get together for some Holiday Cheer!

Scroll to the bottom of this page to sign up and see pictures of the last year’s Christmas Party.

The Lakeshore Repeater Association would like to invite its club members, their family and friends guests to our Annual Christmas Party. The party will start at 5:00 with an hour of socializing and getting to know those who may only be a “voice in the box “ up ‘till now. The cash bar will be available to anyone of legal drinking age.

THE LRA ANNUAL CHRISTMAS GIFT EXCHANGE!

All attending members and guests are urged (but not required) to participate in this fun event. Bring a wrapped gift to exchange with the other attendees at the party. It need not be expensive. It can even be goofy. The only requirement is that the package be wrapped and clearly marked to indicate that it would appeal most to an OM or to a YL.  Don’t be a Grinch. If you didn’t bring one don’t take one!

The fabulous LRA Christmas party will be on Sunday, December 8.

This signup page will remain open until Tuesday, December 3rd, as we need to provide a guest count to the caterer.

We will see you at  5:00pm at:

Tailgaters Restaurant

7641 WI-38, Caledonia, WI 53108

Welcome to the Lakeshore Repeater Association (SE Wisconsin)

Our history in Wisconsin goes back decades and we’ve grown to triple digit membership in recent years. We operate multiple Ham Radio repeater systems covering SE Wisconsin. Check them out in the pull-down menus above.

We’ve recently added Allstar coverage to give us world-wide coverage and our “Happy Hour” group that meets every day at 5:00pm Central time is your opportunity to introduce yourself. New hams are especially welcome.

Operating on our systems is a privilege … not a right … so please review our operating rules in the pull-down menu above. They are simply based on common courtesy.

We sincerely hope you decide to become a member (click on the MEMBERSHIP pulldown above to join on-line) and support our operating costs with a small annual donation, but if not, please know that you are always welcome. Our leadership team is always willing to help and answer questions. Contact them at BOARD@KR9RK.COM

Report Severe Weather Safely and Effectively

Stay safe first! Only report weather events if you can do so without putting yourself in danger.

The Severe Weather net will be started on the LRA 2m repeater.

How to Report:

  1. Check in: Use your call sign, name, and location to check in to the severe weather net. The net will be started on the LRA 2m repeater.
  2. Get Attention: When reporting, clearly state your call sign and briefly mention what you’re seeing (e.g., “This is N0CALL reporting heavy rain”).
  3. Provide Details: Once Net Control acknowledges you, provide a full report using the “Who”, “What”, “When”, and “Where” format.
  4. Reporting Resources: Refer to the “Severe/Convective Weather Report” form under Activities > SKYWARN page.

Remember: By reporting accurately and following proper procedures, you are helping to keep your community safe!
