> Please help in the coming days to help keep the Mexican emergency net frequencies clear as many XE stations will no doubt be passing emergency traffic due to Hurricane Patricia.  The main frequencies I have seen mentioned are 3.690, 7060, 14.120, 21.120 in addition to 7050 to 7100, where stations could also be transmitting emergency traffic.  Please feel free to pass this on to your clubs and friends.

>>> From the CQ Newsroom:
>>> Attention Contesters: Please protect the Mexican hurricane emergency net frequency of 7060 kHz during the upcoming CQWW SSB DX Contest as potentially catastrophic Hurricane Patricia heads for Mexico's Pacific coast.
>>> 
>>>  
>>>  
>>> This request comes from IARU Region II/Area C Emergency Coordinator Arnie Coro, CO2KK, who says additional frequencies on 40 and 80 meters may be required once Hurricane Patricia makes landfall later today (Friday).
>>> According to the National Hurricane Center, Hurricane Patricia is the strongest eastern North Pacific hurricane on record and is "heading for potentially catastrophic landfall in southwestern Mexico later today." As of Friday morning, the Category 5 storm had maximum sustained winds of 200 miles per hour (322 km/h).
>>> 
>>> Please avoid 7055-7065 kHz during the contest, to provide a clear frequency for the net on 7060. 
>>> 
>>> Thanks and good luck in the contest!
