Please avoid normal amateur use of 3750 - 3760 kHz and 7100 - 7120 kHz
where and when it may conflict with emergency communication during recovery
operations.

Emergency comms in the Azores
GB2RS News Team | March 25, 2022
The island of Sao Jorge in the Azores has suffered over 1,800 earthquakes
in 48 hours.
The regional government has prepared contingency plans to protect the
island’s population.
CT1END, the Emergency Communications Coordinator for Portugal, reports
that a group of nine radio amateurs are working to support emergency
communications locally and back to Portugal.
Radio amateurs are asked to steer clear of 3.75 to 3.76MHz overnight, 7.1
to 7.11MHz during the day, and around 14.300MHz for those amateurs outside
the region.
All radio amateurs are encouraged to listen carefully and avoid causing
any interference to emergency operations on those frequencies.
More details are available on the IARU Region 1 website.
