About SPECS
SPECS started out as a net in the 1950's on two meters AM. Walt Reed (W6ASH) started the net, and in the early 70’s he decided to add a repeater at his house in Los Altos. Later the repeater was moved to the site at El Camino Hospital and was the first antenna at the hospital. The SPECS RA was subsequently formed as the legal entity that owns the repeater. The user group was formed later. Learn more.

The board meets several times throughout the year as needed. Members are welcome to attend. Elections are held at the annual members meeting in January. Click here to see more about current board members.
