-------------------------------------------
* Liaison
with the NM State EOC and NWSABQ is currently via the MegaLink repeater
system. We use the Caprock 18 repeater
for liaison with Lea and DeBaca Co.
Roosevelt Co is via the Megalink or HF.
Traffic to the Otero
Co mountain area is currently via the 18 repeater, the 98 Lincoln Co repeater
or the 975 Eddy Co repeater. Traffic to
the Otero Co plains is via a relay or HF.
The MegaLink system should be
reserved for situations where other means of communication are not suitable,
since it serves all of New Mexico.
When selective linking
capability is available for the Caudill 25 repeater, it will become the primary
link to the State EOC, NWSABQ, and Lea-Otero-DeBaca-Roosevelt Co.
HF Use
HF will be used for voice traffic when a suitable
repeater(s) is not available and for digital data transmission when other more
suitable means are not available.
