System Overview
BeachNet
is a network of
linked Amateur radio repeaters in southwest Washington. Anything transmitted over any of our
repeaters is heard on all stations in the system. With all the repeaters
linked together, they operate as one machine, covering
the southern coastal counties of Washington State, impossible from any one site.
For special events or local emergencies, the network can be reconfigured,
tailoring our coverage as necessary.
BeachNet
works closely with
local Emergency Management Agencies to provide emergency communications
support in the public interest.
KO Peak Off The Air!
The
KO Peak 441.675 station
went off the air 11/07/09 coincident with the
passage of a large thunder cell. The system links have been
reconfigured to maintain some network continuity.
The North Cove and Grays River
stations remain disconnected.
