Saguaro National Traffic System 2 Meter (NTS) Net (http://www.saguaronts.net/), meets daily at 6:30 p.m. MST (0130Z) on the Eastern Arizona Amateur Radio (http://www.eaars.org/) Society (E.A.A.R.S.) repeaters. The net is open to all ham operators that are interested in the NTS regardless of license level. Traffic is “not” required to check into the net but I certainly encourage any type of radiogram message traffic. If you don’t know how to send, receive, or deliver traffic, we’ll train you right on the net. We also have training net on Monday evenings if you would like to participate during that net.
The repeaters are; 146.86 and (440.700 Hub) Heliograph Peak; 147.28 Guthrie Peak - Greenlee County; 145.21 Jacks Peak New Mexico. Between Lordsburg & Silver City; 145.41 Pinal Peak Near Globe AZ; 147.16 Mt Lemmon Near Tucson; 146.70 Greens Peak Near Springerville – Showlow; 145.27 South Mtn. Near Alpine, AZ; 147.08 Mule Mtn. Near Bisbee in Cochise County. All E.A.A.R.S. network repeaters operate with PL tone 141.3. For more information about this net, contact Greg Peters (kc5zgg@aarl.net), Net Manager.
