Set Up

Net Control set up usually occurs Friday evening, depending on our ability to access the room. Check back for updated set up information.

No Buses Again This Year

The DC no longer has a SAG bus sweeping the course from Lunch back to S/F.

Pre Ride Meeting at City Hall

Thursday May 15 at 1900 hrs. The pre-ride meeting will again be held at the Parking Lot behind City Hall, at the corner of Russell Blvd. and B Streets, about seven blocks south of the old meeting location on B Street. Directions to City Hall can be found HERE. We will be meeting at the east end of the parking lot, closest to A Street.

Talk-in on 442.025 + pl 179.9 or 144.430 simplex. SAG boxes, info packets (shirts, maps, freq plan), should be available. Any op not able to make it can make other arrangements or pick up their stuff at net control on event day.

Route and Rest Stops

As of the March 5, 2007 DC meeting, RS6 will stay at Cobb Elementary, 15895 Hwy 175. As of the April 23, RS 7 will be back to Resurrection.

Radio Plan

Due to the PAVE/PAWS radar issue, there will likely be some significant changes to the radio plan this year. Check back for updates, and be sure to carefully review the radio plan document when you receive it.

Net Control will be geared towards having enough ops to handle simultaneously 2-4 channels, minimizing the time needed for field units to get a response.

(6 May 1700 hrs.) The freq plan is available and should be emailed to radio ops in the next couple of days.

APRS

APRS will be used again this year. A separate packet frequency with special event digipeaters located on the course and in the plane will be used. We do not use the national 144.390 frequency due to coverage and congestion issues. Net Control will be equipped to track APRS equipped units.

Roster

This is the roster and shifts as the positions are being filled.
Due to the high number of returning ops, an (*) will denote those that have confirmed for this year.
