Nets

Nets are an important part of Amateur Radio. Their primary purpose is to exercise equipment and proper operating procedures. Nets allow regular tests of communications in a region over a wide range of conditions. Thus, alternate frequencies and procedures can be worked out prior to an actual emergency as needed. Nets also allow round table discussions on a wide range of topics, which are not necessarily limited to amateur radio. Most nets are open to all amateurs stations licensed to operate on the specified frequencies and modes. Many nets are formal in nature, while others are more social. In all nets, it is important to listen to and follow the directions of the net control operator.
