 Opening the NET at 7:00pm 

This is STAFF 1 from the Gardena Disaster Communications Service. The Gardena DCS is holds its weekly Emergency Communications Team Net every Monday on this frequency from 19:00 hours until approximately 19:15 hours.

Before we start roll call, is there any emergency traffic for the net?

Hearing none, we will now proceed with roll call…

When your station is called, please respond back with your “call sign”, your “first name”, and “approximate location”. Also, please respond back with the answer to the following “disaster preparedness question", “Do you keep a pair of shoes and a flashlight next to your bed while sleeping” 

 Starting the roll call.

NOTE: (If you joined the net after roll call is finished then now is the time to identify yourself with your “call sign”.)

 Messaging

We will now continue on with the “Messaging Portion of the net.

 The first message of the night will be read by “Net Control”:

“Message as follows”

More than half of Americans have not prepared copies of crucial documents. Think of all your important documents, from the title to your house, to Social Security cards, passports and birth certificates.  What would you do if you lost all these documents from a fire that burned your house after an earthquake? Make copies of your documents and keep in a sealed, waterproof pouch in your emergency kit so you can easily take them with you if you need to evacuate. It’s a good idea to also scan copies of your documents and save them electronically, incase anything happens to your home before you’re able to evacuate. Another good idea is to have original copies saved in your safety deposit box at a bank.  Getting your life back to normal after a disaster will be even more stressful if important documents are destroyed, so take time now to make copies.

“End of Message”

  

“Closing the Net”

 Before closing the net, is there any late or missed check-ins to the net, if so, please come now”

Note: If you joined the net in progress now is the time to identify yourself with your “call sign” and let net control know if you have any messages for the net.

 

This has been Garden Disaster Communications Service emergency team net. The cooperation of all at large radio operators in providing the Gardena DCS a clear frequency has been much appreciated.

 

This is STAFF 1, our net is now closed and the frequency is now clear for normal use.
