WE SHOULD MENTION THAT THIS IS A "HOMELAND

TO SPEAK.
2. VETERANS ADMINISTRATION EXERCISE MAY 12.

WE WILL MOVE TO NMCM FREQS. WE SHOULD KNOW
THESE FREQS BEFORE THE EXERCISE.
(B) WE WILL SEND A MEMBER(S) TO THE AMATEUR
NET TO ACT AS LIAISON. THEY ARE GOING TO USE
DESIGNATORS SIMILAR TO OURS, TO HELP AVOID
INTENTIONAL INTERFERENCE FROM FOLLOWING
TO OTHER FREQS. THEY ARE:
VAA  3.910 LSB    VAB  3.980 LSB    VAC  7.245 LSB
VAC  14.300 USB    VAD 147.57S        VAH  146.94 RPT (WOLF CREEK)
THERE ARE OTHERS BUT THEY ARE MAINLY VHF FREQS IN
WASHINGTON.
(C) OUR PARTICIPATION AT THE WHITE CITY AND
ROSEBURG VA FACILITIES WILL BE DEPENDANT ON 
AVAILABLE OPERATORS. I BELIEVE THAT ARES/RACES
WILL HAVE THEM COVERED.
