We've spent some time updating procedures for the Massachusetts RACES 
program, including defining the Massachusetts Emergency Frequency Plan or 
MEFP, updating net operation activities requiring the usage of and defining 
the terms "Over", "Out" and "Break" in the course of a controlled net to 
indicate what the NCS requests, a list of available VHF Simplex frequencies 
to pass traffic or other coordination, updated contact information on 
RACES, ARES, SKYWARN and MARS leadership, updated sample RACES appointment 
forms and updated club contact information courtesy of the ARRL.

Please download a copy and keep it with your station records.

This document is dated July 1, 2003 and approved by myself, Steve Finks
