SLV ARES Repeater Hop Roll Call/Signal Report Net Sample Script 
Remember to ID every 10 min and at the end of transmission

For our 2^nd exercise, we will move to the <NAME OF REPEATER(s)>  If you do not plan on participating in this net and did not check in and out already, please give me your call sign now so I don’t look for you during the next exercise.

<Pause – write down call signs of anyone not participating and mark accordingly on your list>

We will move to <Repeater info>.  When we move to the new repeater, I will make a short announcement and we will begin a roll call check in from the check in list from this net, and will exchange simple signal reports between us, such as “full quieting”, “weak and scratchy, “fluttery”, or “in and out”. Are there any questions before we move to the new repeater?  Please come now with your call sign.

<Pause – answer questions>

We are now moving to <Repeater info>.  We will return to the WR6AOK (or WB6ECE) when this exercise is complete, or in about 20 min.

This is <NAME>, <CALL-SIGN>, Net control, moving now.

<Move to the new repeater, listen and then begin the new net>

This is <NAME>, <CALL-SIGN PHONETICS>, in <LOCATION>, Net control for the San Lorenzo Valley ARES net that we are forming now.  Anyone needing to make an arrangement to move to another frequency please do so now.  <WAIT>

Also, any priority or emergency traffic please indicate by stating “Priority! Or EMERGENCY” and we will stop our exercise.

This is a directed net, so please transmit when directed by Net Control.  I will use the check in list from the first net and do a roll call.  When you hear me say your call sign, please respond with your call sign phonetically, along with a signal strength report on my station.  I will give you a signal strength report back and then move to the next person.

<Go down the list of check ins, calling each person who checked in (note that those who checked in and out will NOT be on this net). 

<A-F>  
< G-M>  
THIS IS <Call-Sign> 
< N-S>  
< T-Z>  

This is <NAME>, <CALL-SIGN>, Net Control.  Any missed or late check-ins, please give your call sign using standard phonetics, followed by your name and location, now.

<Write down and acknowledge all call signs heard>

Are there any relays?

We will now return to WR6AOK (or WB6ECE) to discuss and close the net. 
<if there were relays, please ask the relay stations to announce that you are moving back to WR6AOK (or WB6ECE)>

 Please move now to WR6AOK (or WB6ECE).  This is <CALL-SIGN>.

<Back at primary repeater>

This is <NAME>, <CALL-SIGN>, net control for San Lorenzo Valley ARES weekly net returning from the repeater hopping exercise.  Are there any comments about the exercise?  Please give me your call sign now.

<Pause, write down and acknowledge call signs, then call on them one by one until all comments are handled.>

Conclusion:

If you haven’t already done so, please enroll in our San Lorenzo Valley ARES mailing list.  Go to XCZCOMM.COM.  From the RESOURCES pull-down menu, select MAILING LISTS, then scroll all the way down to the link to the ARES Mailing List.

Is there anyone else to check in or anything else for the good of this net before we close? 

<Pause - Handle any reply, then repeat question before closing.> 

This concludes our weekly Amateur Radio Emergency Service preparedness net. Thank you for participating. Please check-in with other local nets, it is good practice, and you meet new people in the county.
 
We want to thank the San Lorenzo Valley Amateur Radio Club for the use of the WR6AOK repeater. (or WB6ECE Repeater Group for the use of their repeaters).  They work hard to keep this system up and running.

This is <NAME>, Net Control, returning the repeaters to normal use. Good night and 73.
<CALL-SIGN>
