Guys

Found this list of traffic net frequencies on the "EMMCOM MONTHLY WEBSITE".

NATIONAL EMCOMM TRAFFIC SERVICE (NETS) WATCH • MONITOR • CALLING • TRAFFIC 
FREQUENCIES
All listed frequencies (except 60 meters) are nominal.  Actual nets may be 
up or down as much as 20 kHz.
SSB:
•  1982 kHz (May be activated during incidents.)
•  3987 kHz (And down because most "RACES" activity is above 3.990.)
•  5332 kHz "Up" to other 60M channels as necessary. 50W maximum ERP. 
(Activated during actual incidents.)
•  7244 kHz (up)
• 14280 kHz (up)
• ALASKA ONLY: 5167.5 kHz (USB emergency traffic only)

CW:
•   1911 kHz (May be active during incidents.)
•   3711 kHz
•   7111 kHz
• 10119 kHz
• 14050 kHz
• ALASKA - 3540/7042/14050 kHz
• GULF STATES (LA, MS, TX, AL) - 7111 kHz 1100Z-2300Z / 3711 kHz 2300Z-1100Z
  (Times approximate depending on band conditions and changes in 
sunrise/sunset.)

VHF/UHF FM
• ARES® 146.55 MHz
• ARES®/Red Cross 147.42 MHz
• NATIONAL CALLING (and Wilderness Protocol) 146.52 MHz
• WILDERNESS PROTOCOL (ref. June 1996 QST, page 85).
Primary frequency: 146.52 MHz (FM simplex). Secondary frequencies: 446.0, 
223.5, 52.525
and 1294.5 MHz.  All stations (fixed, portable or mobile) monitor the 
primary (and
secondary if possible) frequency(s) every three hours starting at 7:00 am 
local time, for five
minutes (7:00-7:05 AM, 10:00-10:05 AM, etc.)  Additionally, stations that 
have sufficient
power resources monitor for five minutes starting at the top of every hour, 
or continuously.

NOTES:
1. "Up" or "down" should be in increments of 3-5 kHz SSB (except 60M); 1-2 
kHz minimum CW.
2. If traffic is heavy, nearby frequencies should be designated by NCS at 
least 5 kHz away from NC.
3. 60 METER BAND (USB):
CH  NOMINAL  CARRIER
  A  5332kHz  5330.5kHz
  B  5348kHz  5346.5kHz
  C  5368kHz  5366.5kHz
  D  5373kHz  5371.5kHz
  E  5405kHz  5403.5kHz (common US/UK)

Some of the frequencies listed may be on or near other established net 
frequencies.
As a matter of operating courtesy always move up or down a few kHz to avoid 
QRM when a frequency is in use.
