5 Minutes Before
Attention all stations. The Sacramento Valley Multi-city CERT net will begin on the K6MVR repeater at 20:00 hours local time. Thank you in advance for the use of this frequency. This is NAME, CALLSIGN, net control for this evening and standing by for the net.
Introduction
Good evening, this is the Sacramento Valley Multi-City Community Emergency Response Team net. I am NAME, CALL, net control for this evening. This net is for Sacramento Valley CERT teams and residents to discuss aspects of community supported emergency operations in the greater Sacramento area. It meets every Sunday night at 20:00 hours on the K6MVR repeater on a frequency of 147.000 MHz, and a minus offset with a CTCSS tone of 136.5 hertz.
Is there any emergency or priority traffic that needs to be handled first?
- [pause and listen for 10 seconds for any emergency traffic that needs to be handled]
Every week we will have a discussion topic or question for net participants to respond to, about CERT related activities and skills, emergency preparedness, fictitious situations to consider or about current events within the Sacramento Valley. These discussion topics and simulations are designed to promote thought and discussion. As a reminder, CERT teams never self deploy and should always take actual actions and direction from their overseeing agency. After roll call, we will ask each station to respond to the question and hold a discussion based on it. After roll call and discussions, we will open the net to any stations with other announcements or traffic.
Today’s question is:
Let's explore the line between necessary and highly desired. Imagine you're deployed on a 48 hour assignment and need to take everything with you that is necessary in a small of a pack as possible. What's the last thing you might leave behind you could live without, as much as you wouldn't want to. To help with an example, I'll give my answer now: coffee.
Now we will begin CERT team roll calls, grouped by participating City CERT teams. We will take any late or missing members after roll call finishes. After roll call, we will call for visiting stations.
We now ask Woodland CERT members to check into the net.

Late Members
We will do visitor checkins in a moment, but first are there any late members of Sacramento Valley CERT teams, or CERT members that aren’t on the roster that would like to check into tonight’s net?
Handle any late checkins
We will now accept visitor checkins to the Sacramento Valley Multi-City CERT net. You do not need to be affiliated with a CERT team to check into our net. All visitors are welcome. If you're a visiting station that would like to check in, please come now with your callsign, name and location.
