Denver Radio Club, WØTX

 

NOTICE to All Users of Our Club Repeaters

All licensed Amateurs are welcome to use the repeaters of the Denver Radio Club.  However, we ask that only English be used during QSOs.  This is due to the board and general membership's inability to understand all of the other languages in the world that might cross our repeaters.   As such, we would not be able to enforce all applicable FCC rules if we allowed other languages. The DRC's elected board, has a duty to the club membership (the owners of our repeaters), to be in compliance with all FCC regulations. There is no discrimination intended towards the speakers of any other language.  Our prime directive, as required by FCC rules, is to control our transmitters, and provide a lawful and safe place to share ideas. This notice applies to all DRC repeater use regardless of how the radio is keyed, over-the-air or via any VOIP method.

The "ARRL Repeater Directory" specifically designates multi-lingual repeaters by using the Code "Bi" in their publication. The DRC, WØTX, Repeater system has no such designation.
