Salt Lake Crossroads Amateur Radio Club Net

The Salt Lake Crossroads Amateur Radio Club 
net meets on the air every Thursday at 9:00pm on 
147.50 mhz simplex.

The purpose of this net is to develop and coordinate an emergency communications team in the Communities within and surrounding Salt Lake City by providing amateur radio operators the opportunity to exercise their radio equipment, to practice radio operating procedures, and to perfect the form of the Net.  Although the primary focus is ham radio, other topics of communications and emergency response preparedness are discussed.

Check-ins are called from the four Divisions of SLC and their Community Councils.  If you know in which division you live but not the community council, check in at the end of your division.  If you don't know your division, speak up at the end of the SLC check-ins.  If you don't live in SLC, you're welcome to push the PTT after the SLC check-ins.

Have a pen and paper handy so you can practice writing callsigns as hams sign in.  If you have an interested family member or neighbor, have him/her do likewise.  One day, any of you could be asked to be scribe for net control or to direct the check-in part of the net.  It's really easier than you might think!

Looking forward to your check in!
