Welcome to the Flint Hills Amateur Radio Club!

The FHARC is composed of Amateur Radio Operators in Butler County, KS, and surrounding areas.

Members of the FHARC are dedicated to promoting Amateur Radio as a fun and fulfilling hobby, a valuable learning tool and an essential public service during severe weather and other emergencies.

The club callsign is KB0VAC. This callsign is used to represent the club during Field Day and other special event activities.

FHARC maintains the 147.15 MHz repeater in El Dorado, KS.

The FHARC holds its monthly meetings at 7:00pm on the first Tuesday of each month at the Augusta Department of Safety, 2100 N. Ohio St., Augusta, KS.

Meetings may occasionally be held at other locations. Please check the 147.15 repeater for announcements of upcoming meeting locations.

FHARC members are actively learning and experimenting with various communication technologies, such as Slow Scan TV (SSTV) and Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS).  Information on current projects can be found by clicking on the links in the left sidebar.

Annual membership dues are $10 per individual or $15 for a family.  The dues are used to purchase and maintain club equipment and to fund special events such as Field Day.
