This is a statewide net to exercise and train all Hams for emergency communications.  During the net, you will hear from Hams all across the state, using repeaters, Echolink, IRLP, and simplex.

The net is best heard on the 449.950 repeater in Clearfield. You may also be able to hear the net at http://www.radioreference.com/apps/audio/?feedId=7101.
