New Categories of D11(NR) Aux Land-Mobile Facilities.
With the implementation of the Mt. Diablo Repeater system, the
potential exists for inexperienced repeater operators to have
their unintentional on-air mistakes heard over most of Northern
and Central California! Accordingly, we want to insure that those
able to access and control our repeaters and especially their
remote-base (marine channels) gear have the knowledge and
equipment to properly do so. We have devised a new Comms-1 Form
for all land-mobile and fixed-land operators to use to become
certified to operate the Mt. Diablo system remote-base equipment.
Read about it on the
Comms Page.
WHO CAN FLY THE AUX ENSIGN?
On 1 October 1999 Commandant Notice 16795 allowed Auxiliary
members who do not wish to offer their vessels as facilities to
have a vessel safety check performed on their vessel, thereby
assuring at least a minimal level of boating safety equipment.
These vessels, not being facilities, either operational or non
operational may not however display the Auxiliary ensign or fly
Auxiliary officers' flags
