DeKalb ARES operates a weekly training net on our primary frequency of 145.45 MHz (-) no PL at 8:00 p.m. local time on Sunday.

Other frequencies used by DeKalb ARES:

Alternate repeater = 146.76 MHz (-) 107.2 PL

Simplex operations = 146.46 MHz

We also encourage General Class licensees and above to check-in to the GA ARES net each Sunday at 22:00 GMT on 3.975 MHz LSB

The first Sunday of each month is designated at Emergency Power day when we like to have our members check-in using their emergency power supply to verify its performance.  This test of our emergency power capability demonstrates our readiness to support our served agencies in a time of commercial power loss.

Also on the first Sunday, we check in to the Metro Atlanta ARES Net on the 146.82 (PL 146.2) repeater of the Atlanta Radio Club.  Hams from all over the Metro Atlanta area are invited to check in when their county is called.
