Notice

Welcome to the Twin Cities FM Club New Website!

 

Welcome! Please register by clicking on the link to the right. You must register. Your account on the old site will not work here. Please use your callsign as your username.

If you have trouble, email for help webmaster@tcfmc.org.

After several years of running the TCFMC.org website, Peter has handed over the reins to Dave, N0KBD.  Dave has built a nice, new website with a lot of development potential, just not very much content at this time.  Please join the project and start adding content!

Current features include a forum for member discussions, personal profiles seen only by registered members, and private messaging for members. Under development is a Club Event calendar, a means to pay your membership dues and update your address information, as well as unlimited photo galleries. Other possible additions could include embedded video, project management software, event registration software, interfacing with social media and almost unlimited other features available from Joomla development teams. Visit the Joomla extension site and dream about the possibilities!

Peter will still administrate the TCFMC and TCFMC-announce mailing lists - you can join either one at http://lists.duonet.net/

The mail forwarding for members that have callsign@tcfmc.org addresses still works.  When you register at the new site, or whenever you update your profile and you'd like to show off your TCFMC club affiliation with a custom email address, please click the check box and a forwarding address will be set up to send to your registration address. Please do not register with this address, you must use another email address.

The Quarterwave newsletter archive is accessible at http://qw.tcfmc.org/.

Repeaters & Nets

 

Repeaters & Nets

Twin City FM Club maintains three repeaters for use by club members. All licensed amateurs are welcome to use our repeaters, but if you find yourself on our repeaters frequently, please join our club. Your membership dues help keep our repeaters available for everyone to use!
