Haiti Emergency Net

Southern Missouri Scaner is currently broadcasting the Emergency net from the Hati Earthquake ops.

This feed is the emergency net that is being operated by the International Emergency Radio Support Coalition via echolink (specialize program that links amateur radio into the web - allows for amateur radio operator to communicate via text and voice either computer to computer, radio to computer, or radio to radio - all being linked by the internet). A large majority of the station on this net are from out of the US - from all over the world - yet - nice and clear almost the same quality as listening to scanner sitting beside you.  Their is another net that is being operators by the Salvation Army Team Emergency Radio Network on the 80 meter ham band.

At this point - they are just trying to keep tabs on everyone, they are still trying to get aid and so forth into the country - once they have search operations well underway - and the crisis stage is over with - they will start passing health and welfare messages, taking damage reports, all that sort of stuff.  So right now - the net is in Emergency mode - standing by, and waiting to hear from HAM operators that are in country.  At this time - neither one of the nets have had any contact with any of the operators in haiti - and very limited contact with the few hams that have gotten into the country.
