The Gila Amateur Radio Society is a small club, located in Silver City, New Mexico. GARS operates a 2 meter repeater on 146.98 MHz with a CTCSS tone of 103.5. The repeater is located atop Black Peak north of Silver City at an elevation of approximately 9,000 feet MSL in the Gila National Forest. The repeater is solar powered and consists of a Kenwood TKR-750 commercial repeater.
