Reply To: The Master Channel Plan (For events and Emergency Operations)

    Okey dokey.

    (4)  Holy pickle juice!   TNX for the heads-up.   Operator headspace whilst typing is my only excuse.   Numbers corrected.

    (5)  Our goal was to use operational repeaters in emergencies.   At the time, this machine was up and running and functional county wide.   It is no longer so, but is included here as a place holder until the machine either comes back on line or another candidate raises it’s head.   If you know of one, please list it below and we can make those changes.

    (6&7)  Cville was also up and operational when this was created.   Now … not so much.   Same comments as above on (5).

    (20)  Oops!   Ayup.   Duplicate.   My bad.   Please subtract this channel.  (LEAVE INTENTIONALLY BLANK)

    (29)  Again, this channel is to be used in this configuration during emergencies only.   Most of us know this, but the programming is intended to provide maximum performance under difficult circumstances.   Any other possible channel suggestions are most welcome.

    (30)  Please Find me a better one.

    I may be wrong, but this is my personal interpretation of the ARRL and Texas VHF-FM Society North Texas Band Plans as posted on their respective websites.

    More work should be done to coordinate, fix & add additional surrounding counties as it seems those west and southwest of us were left off this Master Plan. When I was in the EOC I frequently assisted Fannin and Hunt Counties due to being outside the affected area and getting forewarnings of what was to come was appreciated by the local EMCs.
