The
Columbus MMRS (Metro Medical Response System) has
established a HF radio net.
The
purpose of the net is to test amatuer radio
equipment and provide practice for those amatuer
radio operators that are
associated with an Emergency Management Agency.
All EMA organizations and amatuer radio operators
associated with an
EMA are encouraged to join the net.
The net is every Thursday afternoon at 1530hrs
Eastern on 3965 khz LSB
Last week the following organizations checked in:
Columbus/Muscogee County GA EMA
Macon-Bibb County GA EMA
Columbus Regional Hospital
Lee County AL EMA
Russell County AL EMA
Randolph County AL EMA

This week
the ARRL has appointed WN8UNO - Nate in Cochran as
the EC for Bleckley county. N4TUA -
Collin is the
EC for Pulaski County. In collaboration, the two
ECs have started an Amateur Radio Emergency
Service VHF net on Monday at 7:00 PM local time.
This net will provide training and further amateur
radio in our community.
Making
It Happen
Mike and
Dan made an incredible effort, along with a
supportive team, to make it happen. The Central
Georgia Amateur Radio Club sponsored this
repeater. Dan donated the Heavy Duty batteries
for back-up power. This is the only repeater in
Bleckley Co with this backup system.
Calls:
Mike: WM4B, Dan: KF8DB
Got

Linking 6.85 and 5.11
Repeaters
Here’s
the latest: The
link will be located at the 6.85 site. It
will consist of a 2-meter radio tied to our
CAT-1000 repeater controller. The controller
has the ability to tie the audio from the 6.85
receiver to the link radio transmitter, which is
tuned to the input frequency of the 5.11 repeater. click
