Subject: The Game's Afoot!

Yep - Puerto Rico CAP is their correct State Wing callsign. Like Florida CAP where you are, or WHITE PEAK where I am. I'm not in Florida. I DON'T see ANY reference to any Part 15 or other unlicensed devices being employed or reported. Nor do I see any PLMRS, GMRS, or MURS systems. (Certain posters here insist they play a "major" role in "emergency comms"...Guess they will be in the NEXT exercise...?!?! In all fairness, the frequencies posted were in relation to a military exercise and to an exercise of a radio net oprated by the civilian government in support of said military exercise. This is far removed from the type of "emergency comms" in which GMRS, MURS, FRS, and Amateur stations would be involved. That one wasn't on you, John. Certain other posters have "insisted" that those radio services are "major" contributors to "emergency comms". They have yet to establish any validity for those claims. 73 Steve, K4YZ |
