EMERGENCY AUTOPATCH PROCEDURES 

  1. Do not hesitate to interrupt a conversation on the repeater for emergency traffic. If you are using the repeater and someone announces they have emergency traffic, stand by until the emergency traffic has cleared the repeater. 
  2. Announce that you have an emergency call by stating, "this is KX0XYZ with an emergency autopatch".
  3. Key in the agency's Emergency AutoDial Code on your touch-tone pad.
    When the emergency operator responds, ask for the emergency dispatcher and relay your message.
    Advise the dispatcher that you are an Amateur Radio Operator calling via two-way radio and ask if you are being heard.
    Tell them exactly what and where the emergency is.
    Allow the dispatcher to hang up first.
    If you do not know what county or city you are in, dial 911 for the Colorado Highway Patrol.
    After you give them your location and the nature of your emergency, depending on the call taker you reach, you may be asked to hold for a transfer or the call taker will relay your information to the appropriate agency.

Please note that all emergency AutoDial calls have an extended time out up to 30 minutes. 

Please don't abuse it and feel free to use it!
