All VOI Club repeaters are open and may be used by everyone, although your financial support is most welcome and appreciated. It is expected that all users of VOI repeaters will adhere to the FCC rules for Amateur Radio operation.
*Use of the VOI Repeaters for Events*
VOI is pleased to support other groups conducting Public Service events. If you would like to use one (or more) of the VOI repeaters to support your event, please complete the VOI and either submit it to a VOI Club officer or email it to at least 30 days in advance of the date of the activity (sooner is better). You will receive notification from the VOI Board of Directors as to the granting of your request. Note that club-sponsored nets and events will have priority, otherwise priority is based on a first come, first served basis. If there is a conflict, the VOI Board of Directors will try to work with the requesters to find a solution for shared use.
