Saturday, November 9th, is the date for the 2002 Nevada Simulated Emergency 
Test.  All amateur radio operators are invited to take part.  The SET will 
start at 0830 local time and last approximately two hours.  Initial 
check-ins will be made on 146.460 MHz simplex, with additional check-ins 
made on the 147.240+ and 147.270+ repeaters.  Check-ins will be made to a 
directed net.  N6YMA will be acting as VHF NCS.  Local VHF check-ins will 
be relayed via HF to the Nevada NCS in Elko.  W6OLD, Dick, will be acting 
as the Douglas County HF liaison.  The primary HF frequency will be 7280 
kHz.  The backup HF frequency will be 3965 kHz.

The scenario for the SET is a major weather event, with normal 
communications between Reno and Las Vegas out of service.  Because the 
National Weather Service is forecasting an actual storm for the period 
Thursday through Saturday, we will NOT be simulating weather 
conditions.  Local amateur radio stations are urged to submit true and 
accurate weather reports that can be submitted to the Reno National Weather 
Service office.  Additional details for the simulation can be obtained by 
contacting Bob Evans, N6YMA, by phone at 775-265-4696, by VHF on 147.330+ 
or by e-mail at [email protected]

Once again, Saturday, November 9th, is the date for the 2002 Nevada 
Simulated Emergency Test.  All amateur radio operators are invited to take 
part.  Test details are posted on the CVRC web site at http://www.cvrc.net.
