Here are some of the ways in which you, as SEAnet member can
assist the Net Control Station (NCS):
NOT tuning up on Net frequency after the Net has been called to
order, please wait until the Net closes and the channel becomes free.
REFRAINING from checking in under "emergency, medical,
urgent or priority traffic" unless a situation really exists. Please do rot
check in at this time merely to make a contact with another station unless you
have a very good reason to do so.
NOT breaking in out of turn- Please wait for your turn and if it
has passed, then wait for "late station or late traffic." This does
rot apply to any emergency traffic you may have; then call "Break or
Break-Break" for dire emergency. If you want t0 call a station that has
just checked in, then call "Contact"
TRYING to be on time for your turn. The order of check-ins can
vary depending on the NCS and his or her location, but there is usually a set
pattern.
RESTRICTING your transmission to essentials only on tile Net
frequency, such as QRS, QRU, QRV or traffic as the Case may be.
ANNOUNCING at your check-in time if you wish to leave the
frequency before the Net closes.
CHECKING back into the Net f you fail to make contact with your
assigned station on the assigned frequency. Then call "Check Back".
CHECKING back into the Net and releasing the assigned frequency
to NCS when your traffic is cleared.. Say "73 clear" etc.
CALLING "Relay" followed by your call sign to prevent
doubling relaying becomes necessary.
REFRAINING from asking the NCS to hold your traffic for another
day.
TRYING to make all contacts on the Net during Net time with the
help of the NCS only.
THANK YOU AND HAPPY CHECK-INS.
