Civil Air Search and Rescue Association Net

Civil Air Search and Rescue Association Net
CASARA is the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association which are trained volunteers from all across Canada who offer their time and expertise in performing Searches in times of need. We train under many disciplines as Pilots, Navigators, Search Coordinators and Spotters and many have Amateur Radio as an addition to their avocations. The weekly net is to used to check in and exchange ideas between groups who are using new technologies such as IRLP and APRS to name a few, to trade off ideas to make the search techniques and communications between great distances that we cover more reliable. This forum is open to all interested parties and we have usual check-in’s from many of the eleven Units across Ontario and we hope that more across Canada will join us in the future.
