All are welcome to check in to the Niagara County, NY Tri-State ARES Net. The net meets every Saturday at 0930 on 3.953 (+/-) LSB. This net is nice because it gives volunteers a chance to work with HF Liaisons. Working with HF Liaisons out of Ohio will help us get message traffic to somewhere in Ohio due to propagation and/or atmospheric conditions. More information may be obtained at www.kc2yyl.com. As a reminder to all, your time on the net counts as activity time for your county EC's monthly report. Be sure to advise your Emergency Coordinator you are checking into this net.
