Welcome to the
Siskiyou County Amateur Radio Association (SCARA)

Siskiyou County on map of CaliforniaThe Siskiyou County Amateur Radio Association, also known as SCARA, is a group of amateur radio operators located in Siskiyou County, California, and the surrounding areas.

Siskiyou County is located in the middle of far northern California, just next to the Oregon border.  The Interstate 5 freeway runs through the center of our area, and Mount Shasta, the second highest volcano on the west coast, is our best known attraction.  Siskiyou County includes the cities and towns of Yreka, Mt. Shasta, Weed, Dunsmuir, McCloud, & Tulelake as well as Butte Valley, Scott Valley, Shasta Valley, & the Klamath River Corridor.

Monthly breakfast meetings are held the first Saturday of each month in Yreka.  Be sure to check our Events Calendar each month to verify location.  Our Events Calendar was updated on July 30.   There is also a monthly social breakfast held the third Saturday of every month in Etna.  All of our meetings are informal and visitors (both hams and non-hams) are always welcome.

A weekly net is conducted every Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m. on the SCARA repeater system.  A roll call is conducted of "active" members and then visitors are invited to check in.

Check out the different links listed near the top of this page for more information.  Our Reference Files page contains items such as 2-meter simplex frequencies, phonetic alphabet, common Q-signals, band plan charts, and more.  Our Other Links page contains links to some other amateur radio related sites such as clubs and associations, equipment retailers and manufacturers, call sign information, amateur radio news and information, and other links of interest.  We even have a selection of local Traffic Cameras to assist with your travels in our area.  If you are interested in obtaining or upgrading an amateur radio operator's license, be sure to check out our License Testing page.  And finally, be sure to regularly check out our Events Calendar for any updates.
