The NorthEast Amateur Radio Club, N1ERC is a 80 meter club with members throughout Northeast United States and Canada. Russ K1RTA of Wellfleet, MA started the club in 2015 and we have nightly qso’s on 3.827 MHz around 9 pm. Our first Field Day was 2015 at Miles Standish State Forest in Carver, MA. We have attended Field Day 2106-2018 at Humarock Point on the Atlantic Ocean near Marshfield, MA. We celebrate National Lighthouse Day and the 100th Anniversary of the National Park Service at Highland Lighthouse in Truro, MA in August every year. Our bi-yearly meetings are held at the Near-Fest Hamfest in Deerfield, New Hampshire.

Russ K1RTA President of NEARC with his designed ALUMA TOWER Crank-up / Tilt-Over setup on his trailer. Last Field Day we used a ROHN 25G tower that we assembled. This year Russ K1RTA and Bill N2KNL bought a Aluma Tower on Craigslist from a New Hampshire ham. Set up is much easier. Two 12 V DC motors (from Harbor Freight) raise and tilt-over the tower.
