- How to Run a Net- There is usually one-person that serves as a net's NCS (Net Control Station). Different groups can have different approaches to a net with different requirements and protocols to be followed. Some are simple and others are more complex. Clubs may have a simpler approach, while groups like ARES or RACES may have a more formal approach. Here is a document created by the Idaho ARES group (an ARRL affiliated organization) and is titled "Net Control Station Training Manual ". This guide will help you understand the structure of a net. Some nets offer NCS training classes that last about 1.5 to 2 hours. The MARL-Net (see local nets page) is one of these in this area. Most of the time is used to familiarize the trainee with the "Preamble" (the script used) and some training on the use of NetLogger, a free software to record the check-ins. NCS Training Manual
