[CQ-Contest] Leave some room this weekend

[Radio K0HB]

For all of us taking part in the NAQP Phone 'test this weekend.  Please read and observe. 

 

Over 3 million people have been seriously impacted by this earthquake event.  There is a tremendous

Need for communication, and amateur radio is filling it priceless roll.  Please be mindful of the assistance

That many of our fraternity provide in times of emergencies like this.

 

 

The following is from KX9X, Sean Kutzko, from the ARRL Contest Branch.

 

 

With the massive earthquake in Haiti on January 12, please be mindful of

health & welfare nets this weekend during Saturday's North American QSO

Party.

 

The Salvation Army Team Emergency Response Network (SATERN) has

activated their nets on 14.265, 7.265 and 3.977.7 MHz. In addition, IARU

Region II nets are on 3.720 MHz (as well as 7.045 MHz) and the

Intercontinental Assistance and Traffic Net (IATN) is on 14.300 MHz.

Please give them a little breathing room this weekend.
