Visitors
Net Control did not invite visitors to check in tonight in the interest of time so we don't run into the 8:30 YARS net. All 14 persons listed who checked into the YOLO ARES repeater net above were asked to QSY to 146.535 Simplex. Dennis then called the roll on Simplex and only two stations could not be reached of the 14 by Net Control directly or with the help of relay stations. A matrix table containing more detailed information will be creasted by Dennis that will also include type of radios and antennas used, transmission power and emergency power availability when he receives responses from ARES members who participated.
Special Traffic
