Alan VK2MET shares with us a WICEN event for today, 09-Jan-2021:
G'day, WICEN NSW, a support squad of Volunteer Rescue Association, will be conducting an informal communications exercise on the weekend 9-10 January 2021 and invites amateur radio clubs across New South Wales and ACT to participate. WICEN will establish a base station at Little Bay, Sydney, with WICEN members across NSW setting up home or field stations as part of a wider exercise. Exercise net control operators at Little Bay will monitor the following frequencies, passing messages and accepting check-ins from WICEN members and other amateur radio operators:
Band | Mode | Freq (kHz) | Comments | 80m | SSB | 3615 | * +/- allowing for other traffic / QRM | 80m | Digital | 3578 | JS8Call | 40m | SSB | 7150 | * +/- allowing for other traffic / QRM | 40m | Digital | 7078 | JS8Call | 2m | FM Repeater | 147.150 | VK2RWC ( +600kHz/91.5Hz) | 2m | FM Simplex | 147.500 | | 70cm | FM Simplex | 438.750 | |
Contacts from the wider amateur radio community, throughout the course of the exercise, will be greatly appreciated as this will help increase traffic and simulate more realistic workloads for our exercise net control operators.
Informal check-ins are requested to include:
Name, callsign, club name (if applicable), and location (Gridsquare, postcode, Lat/Lon or What3Words).
The exercise schedule is as follows:
- Saturday, 9th January 2021: 12:00 - 22:00Hrs AEDT
- Sunday, 10th January 2021: 08:00 - 12:00Hrs AEDT
