Operating Plans and Procedures for The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers National HF-SSB Emergency Communications Network

Abstract

Historically the Corps of Engineers has not had Corps wide Continental United States (CONUS) radio communications capability due to the lack of compatible High Frequency Single Sideband (HF/SSB) equipment. With the acquisition of 1Kw (HF/SSB) radios for HQUSACE and each division and district in CONUS we noW have excellent, compatible radio equipment to support emergency operations. To become and remain proficient over an extended period of time, it will be necessary for the operators to participate in frequent on-the-air training nets established by this manual. The manual additionally describes military radio procedures sufficient to communicate with military installations when necessary. Provisions have been made to allo%' informal training sessions on the air for sharing information and asking specific questions regarding operating procedures etc. As changes to the manual become necessary amendments will be published and distributed by the proponent activity, %wer Mississippi Valley Di%%sion.
