PEAPRS:  Precision Emergency Automated Position Reporting System

The Air Force Research Lab, Rome Research Site, will be conducting an
experiment using amateur radio operators as an auxiliary line of defense
against aircraft disasters in conjunction with the annual Team Patriot
exercise.  The test will consist of two aircraft flights some time =
between
June 3 and June 8, 2002.  During these flights the aircraft will =
transmit a
distress message (using the call sign WA2ZXS).  Amateur operators who =
wish
to participate in this exercise should, upon receipt of the distress
message, send an email message to [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> detailing the time, characteristics of the
message received as well as the method they used for reception (direct, =
via
digipeater, via wide relay, web, etc).  Those who do not have email
available to them may participate by calling their observation info into =
the
PEAPRS Command Center at (315) 330-7444.  The objective of this exercise
will be to measure the timeliness and accuracy of the reports received =
from
the amateur community.  Amateurs that participate in this program will
qualify for a special certificate, recognizing their participation that =
will
be produced and made available by the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) =
a
co-sponsor of this test.
