Fellow hams,

Effective Monday, March 8, 2010, the 2 meter Nets will be reorganized...

The Union and Richland parish Nets will cease to exist as separate Nets but will be combined with the Ouachita Parish ARES Net that starts at 6:30 p.m. This Net will be renamed the NELA-ARES District Net...Instead of using the 146.850 frequency, it will be moved to the 147.015 machine in Riverton...

The NELA-ARES simplex net will immediately follow the NELA-ARES District Net on 146.550 as usual... This project has been discussed frequently over a period of time, not only at the Club meetings, but individually and the majority of hams that check into these Nets feel that it is the thing to do... The Emergency Coordinators of the parishes involved have all agreed to this proposition... As District Emergency Coordinator, this plans meets all the requirements in the ARRL ARES guidelines... If anyone has any comments or questions, please fell free to contact myself, Carlos, Bob or Kevin....

To reiterate, the schedule is as follows: Monday 6:30 P.M. 147.015 NELA-ARES District Net To follow: 146.550 NELA-ARES Simplex Net
