King County ARES/RACES Net
Revised 08 May 08

Send updates to Kirk Bellar

Preamble:
All stations, this is (your call), my name is (your name). I will be Net Control for the King County ARES/RACES Net.

This net meets every Sunday night at 2000 hours local time on the Seatac Repeater Association, 147.080 megahertz repeater with a PL tone of 103.5 hertz. In case of repeater failure we will stay on the output frequency of this repeater.

The purpose of this net is to provide a point of contact for timely information with all of the emergency communications teams within King and the adjacent counties in the Puget Sound area. This information may consist of meeting, training or public service locations and dates.

This is a directed net. Please use your full call sign for recognition by Net Control. Please notify Net Control if you need to be excused prior to conclusion of the net. Visiting stations will be invited to check in after the teams. Stations with emergency or priority traffic may break in at any time.

Are there any mobiles or stations on emergency power?
