[FCARC] Emergency Services Practice Net

[Craig Szczublewski]

First and foremost, the Emergency Services Net has moved from Sunday to 
Wednesday at 7:30pm.  The following is some traffic notes from the Wednesday net.

KB8ELG and K8JPD met with the Fulton County EMA last week, with notes following:

1. KB8ELG and K8JPD were updated on new siren and alert tones in use.

2. The County EMA is working on obtaining a Technician Class license to 
facilitate traffic passing.

3. KB8ELG reports that equipment will be provided to the County EMA to also 
facilitate traffic passing.

4. A second meeting is planned on July 9th, KB8ELG is requesting club members 
and operators be available on July 9th at 16:30 to participate in a 
demonstration of the 2m repeater capabilities. He would like you to mobile, if 
possible, throughout the county.

Further discussion included potential emergency coordination and building 
occupancy.  The county is receptive to helping out where they can and have been 
impressed with the Emergency traffic nets and the recent deployment during the 
tornado watch several weeks ago.
