Welcome to the Nassau County VHF Traffic Net

We meet every night at 19:30 local hours on the 146.805 repeater. Any licensed amateur radio operator of technician class or higher may join the net.

This is a local ARRL NTS net and meets for the purpose of handling formal third party traffic, into, through and out of the Nassau County area, provided it is of legal origin and destination.

Any Station who is new to the National Traffic System and would like to learn more should read the NTS Introduction Presentation from the ARRL’s Website.
