Welcome to the web site of the
Arizona Repeater Owners Frequency Coordination Committee
a subcommittee of the
Amateur Radio Council of Arizona

We interface with and cooperate with adjacent state certified coordinators for all near border coordinations.

NEWS!
Due to some technical issues at the last Repeater Owners Meeting, ARCA has declared the vote invalid. Lance KW7LH will remain the chairman. Details on nomination and voting procedures will be published as soon as they are finalized.
The corrected repeater owners meeting minutes are here.

Proposed Band Plan Update
We will remain on the current band plan until such time as a better solution that is workable for all (at least most) can be found.
You can submit comments and suggestions to the Frequency Coordination Committee at the address below:

The Frequency Coordination Committee e-mail address is:
coordinators at azfreqcoord.org!
This address is valid for ALL the coordinators. Please include in the subject line of your e-mail a reference to the band you wish to coordinate.

Please do not post this address on any web page without express permission from the coordination committee. However, you may freely link to this web page.


The Frequency Coordination Committee of the Amateur Radio Council of Arizona is a group of volunteer amateur radio operators who work to provide coordination services to the amateur radio community in Arizona. Coordination is performed for vhf and uhf frequencies to be used for repeater, digital and point to point operations. This service is available for amateur radio frequencies from 29 MHz and up.

The chairperson of the committee is elected or confirmed by the repeater owners at the bi-annual Hamfest and serves for two years. The chairperson of the committee then choses the remainder of the coordinators.
Coordination policies are also made or revised at the repeater owners meeting.

The FCC gives preference to coordinated repeaters in interference situations (part 97.205), so it is to the advantage of anyone wishing to construct a repeater in the Amateur Radio Service to avail him or herself of the work of the frequency coordination committee serving the area where the repeater will be located.

There is no charge for coordination. In other words -- nobody makes any money on this!
