(click image for Hi-Res version)
The NoBARC repeaters all use the club callsign K1FFK, as does the Packet Node.
They are all situated atop Mt. Greylock. At 3500 ft, Mt. Greylock has a range without obstruction of about 125 miles.
This means that the 146.910 repeater has one of the widest coverages on the East Coast.

This net was started by Don Horton (N1ISB), to welcome newly licensed and newly upgraded Hams to the VHF portion of the spectrum, to enable them to meet with each other and with more experienced Hams for the purposes of asking and answering questions, exchanging information and building frienships. Don passed away in October of 2001 and the net was re-named in his honor.
It's a great place to "hang out" on a Monday night!
