ARES - Loudon Amateur Radio Emergency Service

Loudon County, TN A.R.E.S. is a group of local, F.C.C. Licensed, Amateur Radio Operators who volunteer their time, communication skills, and equipment in the event of an emergency. A.R.E.S. can be activated to work with local agencies for any event that requires supplemental or emergency communication when traditional forms of communication become overwhelmed or are rendered inoperable.

The KF4ARH repeater antenna is located at the Look Rock Observation Tower in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. The repeater antenna is the one that sticks out on the side, just above the larger dish.
