Club History
MSARC has been a part of the Bay Area radio scene for over 60 years — though the callsign N6MPX came later.
The club's VHF repeater, now operating as N6MPX on 147.300 MHz (75W output), is coordinated through NARCC. Originally installed in the early 1980s by Jerome (Jerry) D. Torczyner, it first operated under WB6VIG/R and served United Airlines employees at SFO.
In 1987, James "Jim" Gibson (N6MPX) took over as Control Operator. The 2m repeater was linked to Jim’s 70cm system in San Jose. After Jim’s passing in 1997, both he and Jerry stepped away from involvement.
