NOVA Practice EMCOM Nets

Post by DCJon »

ALCON,

Beginning June 1st, I'll host a monthly EMCOMM practice net on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month. I'll use AMRRON net protocols and their Net Word of the Week.

2000-2015: 2M (146.42 Simplex)
2015-2030: GMRS/FRS Channel 3

If there's sufficient interest, the 2M net will move to a repeater and I'll add CB Channel 3.

That's a great idea! Will you be taking note of those who tune in so you can do a call-back the next week so everyone doesn't step on each other? What time period will this take place?

I'm on the CB all the time.

But, I am also all over the country.

Cool. I work in Zulu a lot so I didn't know which one haha. Wish I had me a radio so I could join in. Once again, great idea! Thanks for setting it up.

For the heck of it, I'll add a 2030L CB Channel 3 LSB net.

Revamping the schedule for next week: (all times local)

2000-2010: 2M (146.42 Simplex)
2010-2020: CB Channel 3 LSB
2020-2030: GMRS/FRS Channel 3

Simplex means you must be within 10-12 miles of net control. If, after going outside to a high spot, you still can't hear me then I recommend starting your own net.

No joy on these nets. Stand by for 40M digital nets.
