SHARES Network & Inauguration

MaryMikulin · #1 (**permalink**) 01-18-2009, 04:02 PM

I would like to monitor the SHARES Network during the Inauguration. There are some common frequencies listed which I have programmed into my Icon R-75 but I was wondering if anyone has heard any activity on new frequencies--voice or data.
The SHARES Network has many potential frequencies that can be elusive but this is a great time to monitor for activity.

Thanks,

Mary

So how did it go? Did you hear anything?

No emergency exists so the only thing one may hear is occasional routine traffic and training exercises. Nothing surrounding the inauguration met criteria necessary for accessing the network.

I don't know, the Mayor of Richmond declared a state of emergency that week just in case.

And about 46% would say we are ALL in a state of emergency now!

Before going all stupid it would be nice to learn what SHARES is and what declaring an emergency constitutes beginning with that numbnuts mayor.

A National Special Security Event such as the inauguration of a new POTUS certainly would be a reasonable event to expect SHARES key stations to be more active than usual.
