0800 Marine HF / SSB Radio Check-In

SSCA members will lead a marine HF / SSB radio net on 4417 kHz (4C) at 0800 ET during the Annapolis Sailboat Show October 9 to 13 And in the Hampton VA area October 27 to November 1

All cruisers are welcome to check in, share local news and have a radio check with those attending local events.

Marine HF radio nets enable cruisers to know who is nearby whom the cruiser may not otherwise know is nearby. Contact may even be the next boat in the anchorage. Plans can be made with friends. The nets are open to all cruisers.

SSCA nets are supported by AI feeds(HAL) summarizing weather, navigation issues, and fun events of interest. Contact Homebase for information to start a net (VHF or HF)!

If you do not hear someone come on for net control promptly at 0700, just say, “Good morning, this is SV … located in … looking for check ins for the SSCA cruisers net. Any SSCA member or other cruiser, please come back to SV….”
