ARLB007 Earthquake 1
Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) and Radio Amateur Civil
Emergency Service (RACES) operators are currently establishing
emergency communication in the aftermath of this morning's
earthquake in the San Fernando Valley. Operators are assisting
police, fire and other local emergency management officials with
local VHF communications.
Amateurs are advised that operators in the affected areas must give
priority to meeting immediate emergency communications demands.
Amateurs must not transmit on emergency net frequencies, except when
directed to do so by net control stations. When the situation has
been fully assessed and order restored, operators may be able to
provide health and welfare message services out of the affected
areas. Priority will be given to outgoing messages since most
amateurs in the affected areas will be unable to deliver incoming
messages until phone service is restored and roads repaired. Welfare
inquiry traffic should not be accepted from the public until
authorities in the affected areas indicate they are able to process
such inquiries.
