The Carter County Amateur Radio Association (CCARA) is comprised of FCC licensed Amateur Radio Operators who have voluntarily registered their capabilities and equipment for Emergency and/or community service. CCARA operates and maintains a 144 mhz communications Repeater atop Holston Mountain to be used in the event of an actual emergency.
Available 24/7, the WR4CC/R repeater is open to all licensed Hams for non emergency and training uses. From time to time, the repeater is linked to the internet (echo link) and a network of Amateur Repeaters in upper East Tennessee, forming one of the largest Amateur Repeater Networks in the Eastern US. Tune your scanner or VHF radio to 146.700 mhz to listen in. For Hams, the input is down 600 khz with an access tone of 77.0 hz. CCARA holds a regular meeting (net) on the repeater each Monday evening at
