A Note From Your Director
Welcome to the Virginia District.
The coordination of new repeaters continues to become increasingly difficult,
particularly on 2 meters and 70 centimeters. We are fortunate to enjoy a high degree of
cooperation from our neighbors to the North in T-MARC, which coordinates Northern
Virginia, DC, Maryland, Delaware, and a small portion of West Virginia which includes five
in the eastern panhandle. Other coordination districts surrounding our area fall under the
blanket of SERA. These include North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia.
Virginia presently has approximately 385 repeaters, of which 284 are in the SERA
Virginia District. 64% of the repeaters in the SERA Virginia District are SERA full
members. This is considerably less than we have had in the recent past. We are looking for additional members to help support the voluntary coordination
program. If you are not a full or associate member, please join and receive the
award-winning Repeater Journal, which is published quarterly.
Also, please note that we are always looking for volunteers. If you would be interested
in helping in some capacity, please contact me at my email address listed here, or at
my US mail address.
Remember that we are here to serve you, the amateur radio community. If for some
reason things don't go right, or you have suggestions on how we can do better, please
contact me. I'll listen.
Thank You and 73,
Jim Campbell, K4YM
