Net Information
Gwinnett ARES holds weekly training and information nets on the Gwinnett Amateur Radio Society 2 meter repeater every Monday night at 9:00 PM local time.  The net operates on 147.075 MHz(+) with a PL tone of 82.5.  The Net Control Station (NCS) and Alternate NCS rotates among the Response Teams and .Administrative leadership according to the schedule below.  Each Response Team is responsible for providing an NCS or ANCS for their assigned week allowing team members to gain valuable net operating experience.
Emergency nets, either SKYWARN or for other emergency situations, can be activated at any time when the need arises.  Severe weather nets are always activated when a severe warning, such as a severe thunderstorm warning or tornado warning, is issued by the National Weather Service.  Emergency nets can only be activated by the Emergency Coordinator or one of the Assistant ECs.  Net operation procedures and preambles are available on the Plans page. The current Training Net script (updated January 23, 2012) can be downloaded in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF for use on the Monday evening Training Net.
The Georgia Section ARES HF Net operates each Sunday evening at 2200 hours Zulu (6:00 pm Summer, 5:00 pm Winter) on 3975 KHz.  All ARES members are encouraged to check in to the Net to exercise HF operation. The Metro Atlanta ARES District Net operates a VHF net on the first Sunday evening of the month at 1600 or 4:00 pm local time.  The net operates on the Atlanta Radio Club repeater, 146.82- MHz (PL 146.2).  All Metro Atlanta ARES members are encouraged to check in to this net.
