Mission Statement
The American Preparedness Radio Nets goal is to use this net to teach people about becoming more self reliant and less dependent on outside help. We also will focus our efforts on Fellowship among any and all Ham Radio Operators new or old, that would like to join us. We will also focus on trying to establish a network of preparedness minded Ham’s everywhere, to aid and assist with communications of like minded people, should any or all of the grid supported communications go down.
What we do not want to happen is for this to become a stuffed shirt unfriendly net like so many. Our whole purpose for creating this net is to Help people, Teach people, and to provide communication assistance in the event of a disaster. We also welcome people to both the world of Ham radio and of how to become more Prepared in the truest sense of the word. Political debates will not be welcome, religious debate and discussions should be avoided. Radical view points on any topic will not be welcome. There are plenty of places for that elsewhere in our opinion and there are never any winners on these topics.
If you do not have a problem with this than we welcome you, and will help you and encourage you to be a part of this net, in any capacity which you want to participate. We are looking for people to take net control responsibilities, help with relay during the net, or anything else you feel you want to help with. We are open to any suggestions you may have, and we also encourage you to help with test that we may conduct on different bands as well.
We want this to become a place of fellowship and goodwill in the Ham Radio and Preparedness communities. The concept of this net came about as our net was born on Thursday July 16 2009 and our web page was created on Thursday July 23 2009, just so you know how new this all is.
September 01 2009 we have added a forum board to help with support of the net. This is the place where everyone can come and join us rather they are Ham radio operators or not. As stated above we want all like minded people to join us and learn what they can do to have communications ability without grid support.
If you are interested in helping please let us know and we will forward a copy of the Net’s Script to you so you can look it over.
