ACRC Script for Wednesday Evening Net

Good evening and welcome to the Anoka County Radio Club's Wednesday Evening 2-Meter Net on the WØYFZ repeater.

This is [YOUR CALL], my name is [Your Name], and I am located in [Your QTH].  I'll be providing Net Control this evening.

The purpose of this net is to provide a forum for Anoka County Radio Club members and other hams to share their interests.

This net operates every Wednesday night beginning at 7 p.m. central time, on the 146.670 repeater with a minus 600kHz offset and a required input tone of 114.8. Our next net is scheduled for one week from tonight on Wednesday, [Next Date].

This is a directed net.  It is open to all who wish to participate but all contacts should be made through net control.

When you have checked in to the net please remain on this frequency and listen in to the remainder of the net until it is closed by Net Control.

If you have emergency traffic for the net, call in by saying “EMERGENCY”.  You will be recognized immediately by Net Control and then you may pass your emergency traffic.

I will now stand by for any priority or emergency traffic.  This is [YOUR CALL].

Today is Wednesday [Today’s Date]

Tonight’s net agenda is as usual: first, I'll go through some announcements about upcoming Anoka Radio Club events; then I'll stand by for announcements from net participants about other events relevant to the local amateur radio community.  Following the announcements portion of the net I will pose a question for net participants and then start taking general check-ins.
