Nets

A net is an on-the-air gathering of Amateur Radio operators. Nets usually revolve around a specific topic and are held on a regular schedule. Beyond these regular gatherings, nets become crucial during emergencies, providing reliable communication When All Else Fails. During such events, nets may last for days to relay messages and coordinate aid.

Below are the nets that we recommend participating in:
