If you can help out, please let me know.  This roster is also located under the “Net *” tab on the main menu.

We strive to keep this document reasonably accurate to the extent possible.

Color Coding – Some nets are mis labeled as to their primary purpose. Many nets are “multipurpose”.

Note:  I have already started receiving updates and corrections for this listing.  Thank you.  Look for a new “roster” in the next few days.

Happy New Year!

After Action Report 3 AUGUST NM EMCOM
Conditions were above average from my vantage point as the NCS as I was getting 59 reports from most all stations. We did have some lightning crash noise from frontal weather.
As NCS, I did not need to use the Utah Web SDR. I activated Net Logger, but due to workload, I was not able to keep track as well as I would have liked. We will try Net logger again in September.
This was a great turnout with the most NM counties participating since I have been involved with this net (14)
The following counties participated using SSB or Winlink:
Bernalillo, Chaves, Eddy, Grant, Lincoln, McKinley, Otero, San Juan, Sandoval, Sierra, Socorro, Taos, Torrance and Valencia.
Numerous QST’s to include ARES meeting dates.
Up Next:
Sunday September 7, 730pm Local time
W5ACW, Al from Valencia is NCS. Tom N5ATR will assist and log using Net Logger.

PUBLIC SERVICE EVENTS CALENDAR as of 7/2/2025

 Information/volunteers: please contact Ed Ricco, N5LI unless otherwise indicated in the description of the particular event.  n5li@arrl.net 

Notes and comments:

  1. Changes from last listing: Added Day of the Tread, October 25 & 26.

  1. The Tour of the Rio Grande Valley, which ordinarily occurs late in September, is scheduled for September 28, 2025, but it will be a virtual ride this year without organized support, so there will be no communications support needed.

October 19, 2025 – Duke City Marathon.  Albuquerque area amateurs have supported this event for more than 20 years.  As in recent past years, the marathon will follow an out-and-back course from downtown Albuquerque north along the bosque bike path to Paseo del Norte and east to a turnaround point near Edith Blvd., then return.  A half marathon and 10K and 5K runs are included in the event, as well as several walks of varying distances.  We will need a substantial number of volunteers to cover rest stops along the course, to provide medical communications, and to shadow race officials as well as a few bicycle mobile stations and sag vehicles.  Contact me to volunteer.

October 25 & 26, 2025 – Day of the Tread.  Day of the Tread is a Halloween-themed bicycling event for cyclists of all ages and skill levels. It is a two-day event with a “Gravel Grinder” on Saturday October 25 and road events on Sunday October 26. We would need to field 7 positions on Saturday and 19 positions on Sunday. This is a well-run event that is almost 20 years old. It is a high-profile event for Albuquerque and the courses on both days are mostly in the Albuquerque area. For questions and to volunteer contact Ron Guerrero KF5MTU,  ron@ronguerrero.com.

73, Ed Ricco N5LI
