Hello all,



This will be the last newsletter for the season. With all the summer

activities going on I will resume the newsletter in the fall.



Spring is just around the corner hopefully we are all looking forward

to warmer weather and Field Day. The Arrl has released the 2008 Field

Day Packet http://www.arrl.org/contests/forms/fd-2008-packet.pdf



I have updated the INARES page along with the Indiana Section Plan. It

now includes the Simplex Frequencies.

MONTHLY TIP: This is from the PSCM

Monitor established disaster frequencies. Many localities and some

geographical areas have established disaster frequencies where someone

is always (or nearly always) monitoring for possible calls. When you

are not otherwise engaged, it is helpful simply to sit and listen on

such frequencies, some of which are used for general rag chewing as

well as disaster preparedness drilling. On CW, SOS is universally

recognized, but has some legal aspects that should be considered where

the need is not truly crucial. On voice, one can use "MAYDAY"

(universal, the phone equivalent of SOS) or, to break into a net or

conversation, the word "emergency."



Remember we are trying to start an evening ARES net on the 4th Sunday.

Please bear with us till we find a good spot. Start at 3.910 + - you

might have to search but we will be out there. So for the next couple

of months we will have 2 sessions AM 8:00 ET and PM 6:30 ET Indy time.
