We are currently looking for NCS stations for MEMA Region 1 “sectors” both as primary and backup NCS. Region 1 has multiple “sectors” as shown below.
Our nets run on the first Monday of every month, except when it’s a holiday where they are the following Monday. These sector nets start at 1930 local time. The sector nets are conducted on repeaters that are shown at the top of each column below. Nets are generally less than 30 minutes in duration.
Primary need is for the Sector 1A/B. Need backups the other sectors.
If you have any questions, please reach out to me directly.
