Red River Radio Amateurs

The updated RRRAES Frequency list discussed by KD0IOE at the May 2019 ARES meeting has been published on-line. This list is available as an Excel spreadsheet, PDF and CSV files.

The files are stored in the ARES | Documents and Manuals folder on the RRRA File Sharing Server. This folder may be accessed without logging in through a public link (which is listed as RRRA ARES Documents and Manuals on the RRRA Files and Links page.)

Club members who need assistance with their File Sharing Server account should contact the Webmaster Team .
