SSL Amateur Radio Team

When all else fails, radio won't.

The South Salt Lake Amateur Radio Team (SSLART) is a group of amateur radio operators in the South Salt Lake area who support the city by providing communications during emergency situations and at public service events.

Monthly Meetings

In-person meetings are held from 6:30pm to 8:30pm on the 1st Tuesday of each month at the South Salt Lake Community Center (2530 S 500 E) in the Senior Center.

Net meetings are hosted every Thursday night at 9:00 pm using the 447.700 megahertz (MHz) repeater frequency. It has a negative 5 MHz offset (442.700) and a PL tone of 100hz. Anyone who is licensed is welcome to join the weekly nets. If you are interested in becoming a licensed HAM radio operator, please come to our monthly meeting.
