About

Starting in the fall of 2000, a young man had to create and design a business project for his economics class in high school. He chose to create a small group that would focus on communicating with other CB and GMRS users. Thus, WestSide Radio Communications Association (WSRCA) began. During that year, part of the requirements for completion were to monitor the stock exchange program, make real business decisions, and create pamphlets or advertising flyers to draw potential customers towards the "business". He instead chose to create a website that offered membership services for this group. Apparently this was a huge success, because he started receiving actual emails from people asking how they can join and what they can do to support this group. -- In August of 2001, two months after his high school graduation, he decided to move forward and continue serving the local community. The name changed to Bay Area Repeater Net, and the rest is as you see it today. In August of 2008, we decided to split into two seperate divisions to better serve our clients: Bay Area Repeater Systems & Bay Area Repeater Net. Still the same organization and company, but each division now has it's own unique features, services, and operations that no other business or organization can achieve. Below is a brief overview of the services we offer here at Bay Area Repeater Systems: Icom Radio Sales & Programming Tower Site & Facility Services Repeater System Consulting (400-512 MHz) GE MASTR II Repeater Systems Andrew Product Installation Mobile Radio Installation Rental Equipment Dept. Surplus Equipment Sales Bay Area Repeater Systems is now an Icom dealer for Land Mobile Radio equipment, repeater systems, receivers, and accessories. We also carry some of the major brands for antennas and accessories, which allows us to give you more options when building a system of any size. As of January 2010, we have expanded our services to include both amateur radio hobbyists and commercial clients, and offer equipment installations for your home, vehicle, work, and radio facility. Since 2001, we have specialized in building repeater systems and excellent antenna solutions. We also specialize in putting our clients first in everything we do. These are key ingredients to having a successful business, which is what our competitors struggle in. Should your radio or equipment fail at any time, we will come to you to resolve the issue regardless of where you bought it from. When we give you an equipment quote, it expires after three months. But why, might you ask, do we do this? Dealer and industry pricing may change often and new products may become available by then, so we want to give you the best pricing available. This will then give you an opportunity to relook at the equipment you need and allow us to provide you with an adequate and up to date quote for you, your organization, or your company. BARS also offer major discounts with surplus and used equipment, which meet and exceed our operation demands. All surplus or used equipment go through testing phases to guarantee that they will work to your complete satisfaction. That way you can spend within your budget and still have excellent equipment working for you. We have served clients across the San Francisco Bay Area and across parts of Northern California, have excellent references, are a licensed business with the Santa Clara County, and hold several certifications and licenses with ComTrain, Andrew Institute, and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Whomever you are or wherever you work, we are committed to meet and exceed your work demands and business expectations. Our crew members, staff, and business associates have excellent knowledge in the departments they work in. Whether it's today, next month, or 15 years from now, we'll still be here for you and look forward to working with you in the near future.
