Saskatchewan Reflector 9300

A big thank you to Access Communications
A Proud Sponsor of
the SARL REFLECTOR

Reflector 9300 is owned and operated by the Saskatchewan Amateur Radio League. The reflector has been unavailable for the past while and has recently been upgraded and installed in a new facility.

Nets and channel reservations require approval. For questions or requests contact ref9300@sarl.ca. If you previously had a channel allocated please resubmit your request as some groups have found new reflector locations while 9300 was relocated.

Thank you

SARL Exec.

The Net can be heard on any of the following repeaters, provided they are connected to the IRLP reflector.
**VE5CC must be turned on both the reflector and the trunk in order for the net to be heard on RF linked repeaters.

Order of the Net
At or about 9PM CST, the net control station will call the net to order and give a general preamble. There is often news and bulletins at this time from the NCS, usually other stations are asked to stand by with any bulletins until their area is called.

Emergency or Priority Traffic
The NCS will ask if there is any emergency or priority traffic. Any other traffic must stand by until NCS proceeds.

Reports of Ill or Hospitalized Amateurs
The NCS will ask if there is any bulletins or reports of ill or hospitalized amateurs. Any other traffic must stand by until NCS proceeds.

Checking Into the Net
When your area/repeater is called for, you can at this time check into the net. Saskatchewan nodes will be called first, then extra-provincial nodes and finally international nodes. The order of the nodes depends on the NCS. There is no set order.
This net is a traffic net, therefore you must indicate if you have traffic. An example of a check in is as follows:

(A station without traffic)

NCS: "Any check ins for Saskatoon, please call now."
YOU: "VE5XYZ, no traffic."
NCS: "VE5XYZ, thank you for checking, further Saskatoon."

(A station with traffic)

NCS: "Any check ins for Saskatoon, please call now."
YOU: "VE5XYZ"
NCS: "VE5XYZ, go ahead. "
YOU: State your traffic

Closing the Net
The NCS will close the net at the end of all business. Usually he/she will ask if there is any further traffic or check ins from anywhere. Once the NCS clears, the system is open for use again
