Activations
In the event of an area disaster or a need for an unscheduled callout, DuPage ARES leadership will start a net on the K9XD 70cm repeater (444.475 pl 114.8). If this fails, we will mobilize using simplex - per DuPage County IL ARES Pace Plan.
Once you have found a DuPage ARES net, check in and advise as to condition and availability. Even if you will be responding to a callout from another agency, such as a local EMA, advise us so we know who is available, and in turn, you can make your capabilities known to that organization.
In general, DO NOT SELF-DEPLOY!
