Emergency or Disaster Procedures for Area 2 ACS Members

When an emergency or disaster occurs make sure you and your family are safe and secure!

Monitor the Area 2 Rasnow repeater (ACS channel 2) and the Ventura County-wide Sulphur Mtn. repeater (ACS channel 8) See list below. Updates on the emergency will be given at the top of the hour, 20 minutes after the hour and 20 minutes before the hour on the Area 2 repeater.

ACS Ch. 2 – 147.885,  minus offset,  PL 127.3, on Rasnow Peak (BOZO).
ACS Ch. 12 – 146.445, simplex.
ACS Ch. 9 – 145.200, minus offset, PL 127.3, on Sulphur Mtn.
ACS Ch. 32 – 146.850, minus offset, PL 127.3, on Grissom Peak.

In the event the repeater frequencies are inoperable – monitor the Area 2 Simplex frequency (ACS channel 12).

If ACS is activated by Ventura County and you can volunteer, contact the Area 2 Emergency Coordinator, or the Assistant Emergency Coordinators on the Area 2 Rasnow frequency or Area 2 Simplex. Assignments, including which EOCs are activated and need to be staffed and which EOC will be Net Control, will be announced on the Area 2 frequencies.

The Grissom repeater (ACS channel 32) will be set up for non-ACS volunteer operators to contact net control.
