Participate in the Sunday afternoon ARES Check-In Net Sunday August 23rd if you can. The net will begin on the 147.150 (Salem Hill) repeater. The offset for that repeater is +0.6 MHz and the PL tone is 123.0 Hz. Then, we will progress through several other local repeaters (about eight) before going to the more distant repeaters. More than a dozen repeaters in total are tested. Listen closely to Net Control for designation of the next repeater frequency as the order may change. The list of repeaters that are tested in this exercise are here:

Information describing the 2026 Simulated Emergency Test or "SET" is now on hand. Thanks to Mike Watkins - WX4AL (SET Coordinator, AL Section Assistant Section EC) we are making this information available now to all amateur radio operators on our mailing list whether members of the Club or not. We need your help to make this the most successful instance of participation in the SET that has ever occurred by the amateurs of our area. This is a high bar since this area has done quite well in the past. We have some big shoes to step into.
