A Good Samaritan HF SSB and VHF amateur radio net for mariners on the Great Lakes.

The Great Lakes Marine Mobile Net was established to provide mariners on the Great Lakes with yet another means of casual communications back to land. Our objectives are to promote safe boating on the Great Lakes and connecting rivers, and to promote the use of Ham Radio on board. During recent offshore and cross-lake sailing races, we found that not even marine VHF or boosted 3G could span the communications distance to land from the center of these lakes. Some remote coves are also out of VHF and cell phone range. Our free and voluntary HF and VHF service will close the gap for those mariners with a Ham Radio license. These services include weather information, marina information, position reporting, phone patches, email forwarding, medical services and emergency response.

The very excellent WA9ORC CFMC 2M repeater system, from the top of the AON building in downtown Chicago, can cover the whole southern part of Lake Michigan, including all the Illinois, Indiana, and Southern Michigan marinas. This represents some 7000 boats.

Please join Bernie KC9SGV on the net every weekend day at 10:30 ET.

Note : This Net Will Resume April 1st During Boating Season.
