This is a directed net. All stations must use their call sign for recognition by net control. Please do not relay unless asked to do so. If you need to break into the net, give your call sign only and wait to be acknowledged by the net control station.

Are there any stations wishing to list any traffic, bulletins or announcements for the net, please call net control and list your traffic. (Wait for a response)

We will now conduct a roll call for all Snohomish County ACS/ARES members. Visitor stations will be invited to check in following the member roll call. Stations will be called in alphabetical order based on the first letter of their call sign suffix. When you check in, please use the standard ITU phonetic alphabet for your call sign.
