We are a Club consisting of 120+ members from the Summit/Portage County area (and from as far away as Arizona). We range in age from 15 years or younger to 80 years and older. We are students, business owners, retirees, housewives, teachers, tradespeople and technologists - all with a common interest in ham radio.
Our Club sponsors an annual "hamfest" get-together that has a large radio/computer flea market and provides a chance to talk with other hams in person. We participate in the annual Field Day exercise that provides practice in operating under emergency conditions. We provide communications for several public service activities including the Stow July 4th Parade. We own and operate a repeater station in Cuyahoga Falls that provides reliable communications over the greater Summit County area. CFARC provides classes that will help new people to obtain amateur radio licenses and help current licensees to upgrade their licenses and gain greater operating flexibility. We publish a monthly newsletter (The Chattering Relay) so that Club members keep in touch and, in the Summer, we have hidden transmitter hunts.
