Emergency Communciations is the number one priority use of the AERIALS sponsored repeater system. We provide S.A.M.E. based severe weather alerting and battery backup power operation for the benefit of the local Amateur Radio community.
As we support the SAME system, it is our hope that the NJ State OEM officers will at some point coordinate with the National Weather Service and implement the SAME/EAS Civil Emergency Message (CEM) event code to alert all RACES/ARES members of the need to activate.
The CEM code is currently being used for AMBER alerts, but in 2003 the new "Child Abduction Emergency (CAE)" that has been adopted will be pressed into service for that application.
See the links below for more information on the local, county and state Emergency communications scene involving the Amateur Radio Service.
