How to Use the System

Quick Start

Pick a connection method, connect using the ID above, then pause 1–2 seconds before speaking so linking paths open cleanly.

  • Identify with your callsign at appropriate intervals.
  • Leave a short pause between transmissions.
  • Keep overs short so others can break in if needed.
  • Avoid kerchunking. If you key up, give your callsign.
Coverage Notes

UHDARC is designed for practical statewide linking. Coverage varies by terrain and site activity. See the repeaters page for site details and updates.
