Hi Everyone -- I received this from a past SEC of New Mexico suggesting that this be passed on to the entire New Mexico ARES leadership. I offered a strong word of caution since this is one FCC person's word as compared to what is actually Part 97. I think Dave and/or Chris would agree, but I'm forwarding the email below (click the link below to see the content in question) for their input and also for everyone's knowledge in case you get a "he said this even though Part 97 says that" email of your own. 73, Brian N5ZGT ARRL Director, Rocky Mountain Division On the web at www.RockyMountainDivision.org ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, Oct 11, 2009 at 9:55 AM Subject: VA_EmCom : Message: RACES Participation in SET This may settle the question, at least in the short term. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/VA_EmCom/message/1367
