Tower Site

This is the home of the W9LY repeaters, and future meeting place of the LPCARC. Located at US 35 and Schultz Road north of La Porte, it is a convenient location for members and visitors. It is also the site of our annual Field Day operation and the August PCARC Tailgate Swapmeet. Thanks to Danny Scheetz, W9DWS, for generously allowing use of his facility for our ham activities. Danny is also the Trustee of the W9LY club call sign.
