GlobalSET 2009

IARU Region 1 invites the HQ-Stations of all IARU member societies and stations of Emergency Communications Groups to participate in a Global Simulated Emergency Test on Saturday November 14th, 2009 between 18.00 – 22.00 UTC.

The operation will take place on and near the emergency
Centre-of-Activity (CoA) frequencies on 80, 40, 20, 17
and 15 metres (+-QRM ).

This is an exercise between stations interested in emergency communications and is not a contest.

Activity will be concentrated around the IARU Emergency Centre of Activity frequencies which are now incorporated in
band plans around the world.

The details of the exercise will be published on the IARU Region 1 website under the Emergency Communications Working Group section.
