DE AAM3RT NR 112 R 230013Z NOV 2009 FM AAM3RT TO ALL REGION 3 MEMBERS BT SUBJECT: CRAZY IVAN BT CRAZY IVAN drills for the rest of NOV will be held on Mondays /A and Thursday /D nets. This procedure parallels the Exercise Protocol without the overhead requirements and record keeping. It is designed to focus on NCS operation and traffic handling. Any image or traffic is appropriate for digital operations. Voice traffic should be limited to one two line weather reports or statements so we can be completed in the one hour time frame allotted. NCS calls for stations with traffic only. The NCS will call for stations with or without traffic after the initial traffic has be handled. It is obvious attendance on these nets is only by those dedicated Region 3 members who carry continually carry the load for the rest of region members. I realize some due to work commitments, and other personal reason have difficulty with on air operations. However, as the region training officer, I am asking you to make your best effort to participate with this training. December CI is Tuesday /A nets and Friday /D nets. SGD AAM3RT / AAT3GI BT NNNN
