IMPORTANT NOTICE

As of 1/27/2022, the Emergency Radio Operations Center TEAM approach has been adopted.

Prior reports and after action: 002 001

9 / 22/ 2022 A cash reward is being offered for the identity of the person(s) doing the malicious keying of the emergency use repeater and the established emergency communications plan. Contact Nathan for specifics to receive the cash reward. 530-474-3267.

09/25/2022 Incident Resource page updated for new Wild Fire Camera system.. Please see the new camera link here AlertCalifornia - Home Thank you Village Bravo 1 (Doug). Several new features (appears you can place cursor on a specific part of the image and obtain a true north bearing. 9/23/2022 Wild Fire Cameras - links non operational.
09/23/2022 Frontier Land Line Failure for Village (AREA of 400 homes no land line) (those only having Frontier Land Line have no ability to call 911, receive reverse 911, report fires, etc...). 1745 hours. Called Frontier - 1.5 hours dealing with Frontier games and BS. Per Frontier, expect 48 hours for matter to get routed to outage team (they need to "determine if there is an outage". Frontier claimed they didn't know about any Outage, and kept denying there was an outage or Area outage, etc... . Frontier was repeatedly advised that emergency radio operators in Area of 400 Homes all reported no dial tone on Frontier Land Lines for the entire Village Area (400 homes- and that this is in a very high risk area for Wild fires). Frontier continued to ignore the fact of an Area Outage which risks human life and could result in deaths (fires, heart attacks, elderly, etc...). K6PDS "Escalated" to an supervisors supervisor, but Frontier continued with its word games. Village S2 also called Frontier. Frontier claimed that people with non working land lines could call Frontier - but refused to explain how someone with a non working land line can use it to make a call reporting that such land line is not working. Those on frequency (EROC 9) responding : S1 F1 F8 B1 S3; B3. Those responding on frequency 760 10: MWM (rest Area); PDS (village) and a station in Redding. If there is a fire in the Village it could impact all areas of Shingletown. 2115 hours - Frontier Village (400 homes) land lines - no dial tone. 09/24/2022 - 1005 hours - Frontier Village (400 homes) land lines - still no dial tone. 09/24/2022 - 1725 hours - Frontier Village... still no dial tone. (several people have called frontier reporting outage). 1939 hours - E1 made inquiry on EROC 9 as to status of Village Frontier LL outage. F1 responded and S6 updated with more recent information (she had text message from Frontier) - advising we are part of a larger outage. Frontier did not advise as to: cause of outage; size of outage; or estimated time of restoration. Thank you Village S6. Midway advised that Frontier LL is working in their Area. Appears impact is the Village. 09/25/2022 - 0743 Frontier Land Line still not working. 09/25/2022 - 1100 hours - Frontier Land Lines now operational. Village Radio Reports (EROC 9): F1 S9 F8 S1 B1 I1 S3 We need additional Hams in Shingletown to get involved.

AFTER ACTION COMMENTS: 1. When a call is made by Net Control (e.g, “next”), only provide your tactical after Net Control states “next” (do not give your report at this point). There will also be a pause between reports by Net Control to allow any emergency traffic to break in. 2. Net Control will then “pick” a station and say “go” (e.g., “F1 go”). At that time F1 gives his/her report. This avoids doubling (which means no one hears anyone). 3. Also, outside antennas are strongly recommended (you are preparing for emergency comms). 4. Also, if you hear a station that Net Control can’t hear, then after Net Control states “next”, you would say (for example): “F1 relay”, then Net Control will acknowledge and say “F1 relay go”. F1 is to then obtain the report (from the station that they can hear but Net Control can’t) and relay it into Net Control. GREAT JOB TONIGHT! THANK YOU. Note: Request was made on 760 (10) for any non hams from areas not able to reach EROC 9 to send a report by e-mail or phone to show they are participating.

09/22/2022 Repeater returned to ... 10 Papa.

09 / 21/ 2022 - 1030 hours - thunder lightening over Shingletown

Repeater 760 10 placed back on monitor mode (... 10 Alpha) due to malicious multipile keyings while holding down of PTT. If anyone knows who is doing please immedately advise. Such is jeopardizing an established emergency communications system. EROC TEAM to use alternate communications plan.

Vehicle with vehicle breakdown (remote are) unable to use repeater due to the malicious keyings. ...

09 /21 / 2022 - approx 0940 hours Water system not working in Village. Broken water Pipe. Person who spoke to water company advised restoration estimated to be 6 hours. QWI TX on EROC 9. Those responding on Frequency: F1, S2, S6, T10, F8. As of 1028 hours no voice message system contact from water company. 1100 hours (in person contact)- water company employee advised rain is inhibiting repairs. Estimated time for restoration not known (TX on EROC 9)

1244 hours Water services now operational (TX on EROC 9)..

Village Stations which responded during this incident: F1, S2, S6, T10, F8, B1, S9

After Action: When Water Services are out, all stations should respond so that we know which areas within our neighborhood have water pressure. Reason: If there was a fire and Cal Fire needed to use hydrants, it would be very beneficial to be able to advise Cal Fire as to which areas (streets) have water pressure. If no one has water, then Cal Fire needs to be advised so that as they respond they recognize there is no water available locally and Water Tenders may be needed..

FORWARD FIRE - COMMUNITY COMMENTS (Incident of 9/9/2022) (click to read)

As to the video link, you may need to copy and paste it into a new window to view.

Haven't had time to do more extensive reports on our recent fire activity. But, here is a snapshot overview:

1. Wilson Incident 09/12/2022 - - Illegal Burn Pile 4955 Wilson Hill road. Advisory and Monitoring on EROC 9 only (held off 760 announcement pending monitoring of situation)..

Monitoring activated approx 0951 hours / Deactivated approx 1029 hours.
Matter not showing on Watch duty or Shingletown Community Fire web sites at time of incident

Thank you to BK6BZL (VILLAGE S1) for initial alerting.

2. Black Incident 9/11/2022: Approx 2012 hours Black Incident: Highway 44 and Inwood Road. Parallel Fire Nets on 760 and EROC 9. Fire Nets deactivated 2044 Hours.

Thank you KB6BZL (VILLAGE S1) for initial alerting.

3. Forward Incident 9/9/2022 - Net activity on 760 and EROC 9. Our Radio operations continued from about 1445 hours until deactivation at about 2124 hours (approx 6 1/2 hours of periodic bullet point summaries of incident as it progressed). Several stations continued silent monitoring (radio and/or internet resources) after Net deactivation.

Thank your KK6SWE for initial alerting.

I plan to summarize more fully. There were many stations on frequency helping out during the above matters.

Thank you to everyone who helped out.

09/05/2022 - No SER Practice net this week.

To All Radio Operators:

1. September 5, 2022 – Repeater 760 (Ch 10 and Ch 55) placed on monitor mode only (no ability to TX into repeater). (Malicious interference continuing, and violation of FCC rules, etc...).

2. No Practice Net this week.

3. EROC 9 is the CORE primary frequency. Due to geography, only limited areas can reach. Areas not able to reach EROC 9 Nets must set up their own emergency communications plan. The Frequency designation for EROC 9 may be changed in the future if there is intentional interference. In this regard, two changes had to previously be made due to malicious interference. Those changes still allowed all prior radio programming holders to still listen. However, if another change is required, such old prior radios will NOT be able to listen. The SER Plan has sought to avoid such last step, but malicious deviants persist. Active / participating stations / in good standing, will be notified if there is a change. No action needed at this time.

4. SER HQ stations, please follow the alternate HQ Plan.

Thank you.

September 5, 2022, 760 repeater placed on Monitor mode only (no ability to transmit).

(July, 2022 - WILD FIRE SEASON): 760 repeater may be placed on Monitor only mode (no ability to transmit) due to abuse and harrassment by hams and non hams violating FCC rules. EROC TEAM (radio levels 1.5 and above) and HQ USE VILLAGE EROC PLAN. In the event 760 is periodically returned to Normal Operations, key stations may not be monitoring 760 due to the harrassment . Use Alternate EROC backup plan. If you (or your Area) are not part of the EROC Team system (and participating), you need to figure out your own emergency communications before a wild fire hits.

08/31/2022 1506 hours Cal Fire Tone Out Vegetation fire - Inwood area (Wengler Hill Road and Ponderosa Way). Inwood IC; TAC 11; ground and air resources dispatched. (in area of -121.957 40.524 Fire Mappers,(such location may be the IC). 1/2 acre in vegetation with 1 structure threatened. Advisory issued on EROC 9 (with Village, Midway and Long Hollow all immediately responding on frequency. GREAT JOB TO RADIO RESPONSE! (No response from Inwood on Inwood 1). Highline Camera had visual smoke column, then smaller and then not visible. 1519 hours - Cal Fire - forward progress stopped, canceling units and air attack. 1520 hours, Flight radar shows 3 aircraft having circled location and now leaving area (West bound). Advisory deactivated at 1527 hours. Advisory was issued with resolution on 760 - MWM only Ham station responding on 760.

08 / 30 /2022 2014 hours Smoke Check Squaw Springs Rd and highway 44. Smoke column. 2021 hours Cal Fire on scene - advised outdoor fire pit. 2029 hours Engine available (fire contained to fire pit). Silent monitoring deactivated. Scan. K6PDS.

Below is the summary of our Net Last Night 08 / 25 / 2022 (this is in addition to the Shooting and Fire reporting that we dealt with earlier in the day).

NOTE: The total net time was 13 minutes, which included the first 5 MINUTES where each station determined whether any of the problems on Formats Tango 9a or Tango 9M existed (e.g., PG&E power, cell phones, ability to call 911, earthquake damage, etc...). PLUS each station going outside and performing the QWA PROCEDURE to determine if there was any suspect smoke, fire or embers at their location. This step took 5 minutes.

AFTER that ALL OF THESE REPORTS WERE THEN TRANSMITTED BY RADIO, with relays and inter-area relays and relays from Ham; with all of the reports being mapped and summarized with Net Control Recommendation then being made. Such is followed by deactivation and closing. This last step was completed in 8 minutes!

Each of you did a fantastic job. Think about how much information covering multiple neighborhoods was all accumulated, mapped, summarized, with recommended action within 8 minutes under the SER system. Each of you helps make this work.

We can all take pride in this and recognize our ability to almost immediately transmit and know what is happening, even when all other communication systems have failed.

Shooting Incident 08/25/2022 (QWI – Safety Alert). [please review for what you transmit and what you don’t]

NOTE: Sheriff report subsequently determined this was a SWATTING (False report originating out of the country)

Approx. 1545 hours – Tone out Medical with staging – Alpine Way and Lack Creek Rd. area. Shooting / Suspect loose.

1547 hours – Village Bravo 1 issued QWI safety alert on EROC 9. Great Job Bravo 1.

Village F1 (K6PDS) Monitoring: Cal Fire 20; Sheriff 21; EROC 9; and 760 (Ch 10). Periodic QWI Safety Advisory issued on 760 (Ch 10) and EROC 9 - Reported shooting in Area of Alpine Way and Lack Creek Road Area (just south of highway 44 and Black Butte Road) – recommended persons stay out of area due to police activity in area.

During incident, considerable information was derived from monitoring.

However; TX on EROC 9 and Vill 10 (760 repeater) was essentially limited to advising of the Police activity related to the reported Shooting in the Area of Alpine Way and Lack Creek Road, just south of highway 44 and Black Butte Road; that the Sheriff was issuing a code red shelter in place for an area ½ mile around the incident; and recommendation that persons stay away from the Area for safety.

ONLY THE ABOVE LIMITED INFORMATION WAS TRANSMITTED BY SER NET for the following reasons: to avoid jeopardizing police activity / operations; not causing panic to persons who may know persons involved; and sometimes the address given by dispatch may not be the actual address (i.e., wrong address).

Thus, the following was NOT transmitted by the SER net over EROC 9 OR VIL 10 (760) frequencies:

1. The street address of the incident as reported by Police Dispatch (lat and long was plotted on SER Net map during incident for internal purposes) ;

2. Report that person was shot with a Glock style weapon, and that the suspect has firearm pointed at the front door (apparently based on a phone report). Possibly shot female.

3. Request for armored vehicle.

4. Request for drone from RPD.

5. Swat team.

6. Request that School District stop any buss traffic in area.

7. Difficulty in Law enforcement locating the specific property involved (due to the large lot sizes, roads, etc…).

8. Visual of person at a single story …

9. Have Cod Red Shelter in place order issued for a ½ mile radius around incident scene. (NOTE: this specific item of information was transmitted by SER Net).

10. Residence with female on the porch or patio is NOT the correct residence.

11. 1^st driveway to North – Green Residence. Dark color Dodge Ram just drove up – male Blue Shorts, Blue Shirt, Bald – just pulled up. Law Enforcement not going down – man possibly armed with an AR.

12. Male called form target address; - juv at home - sais nothing going on – Sheriff to contact by phone.

13. Request for a GPS position on prior cell phone came back negative.

14. Flight radar shows CHP helicopter still over incident area.

15. (law enforcement) Team driving up driveway – 4 people (2 adults male / female; and 2 juv male / female) coming out of house – all compliant.

16. Drone no longer needed.

17. CHP helicopter left scene (flight radar) (this was TX by SER net)

18. 1726 hours Shelter in place lifted.

SER Net QWI deactivated approx. 1720 hours.

Thank you to Village (VL) Bravo 1 for initial Safety Alert; and Village India 1 for road report coming up highway 44; and all others who were on frequency.

OBSERVATIONS:

Radio Operators: Recently we have had the following: Frontier Land Line Failure; Frontier Internet Failure (and voip); and Cell phone failures (thus no ability to call 911 or receive Reverse 911, etc...). Also, we had a brief information gathering local event for a potential fire (UTL) as well as a report of smoke (UTL). All stations should be prepared to go mobile if needed to obtain visual reports on any fires that may be near them (Mag mount on vehicle is strongly recommended, if possible). But, potentially the "rubber ducky" may work as long as you have a clear shot to the repeater (emergency only - e.g., fire in the Shingletown Core) http://www.shastadefense.com/Shingletown%20Core%2010.jpg

For the above incidents, the SER RADIO PLAN / SYSTEM was the only system that was operating 24/7 allowing for immediate communications to everyone who has their radio on and helping out. Information at the speed of light. Thank you for assisting and being part of it.

Date: 8/13/2022 0900 hours - observed Frontier Internet Outage in Village (stations reporting at various times: F1 F7 S3 F8 L3 B6 i1 T10 ).

THIS SITUATION IS SERIOUS AS IT IMPACTS THE ABILITY OF PERSONS TO REPORT A FIRE; and the ability to monitor wildfire cameras and other resources for early detection and warning.

F1 called Frontier - Area INTERNET Outage according to Frontier due to power outage in Palo Cedro; Frontier working on situation - no other information available.

ALSO, VERIZON CELL SERVICE OUTAGE.

BOTH OF ABOVE STILL OUT AS OF 1632 HOURS and 1730 hours.

1730 hours Village Frontier internet still out - F1 called Frontier - employee stated 1200 customers inpacted, but is a level 1 (apparently low priority), and don't know the cause (still looking into it); and no estimated time for restoration.. Employee evasive and not answering questions.. Requested Manager call back and that matter be escalated. (NEVER GOT THE MANAGER CALL BACK). Also, Verizon Cell phones still out (F7 T10) also AT & T Cell not working. Midway has Internet. Same status as of 1800 hours. Village i1 reported library has also been without internet and cell phone today. Updated TX on 760 and EROC 9.

Above still out 2240 and 2350 hours.

SUNDAY MORNING AT ABOUT 0800 OBSERVED FRONTIER INTERNET BACK ON - but is very slow at F1.

AFTER ACTION COMMENTS: This was a fantastic turnout by Village, Midway, Long Hollow and Rest Area. All of these stations were on frequency to respond to a report of smoke. GREAT JOB! OTHER AREAS OF SHINGLETOWN – NEED TO PARTICIPATE.

COMMENT: THE ABOVE QWA PROCEDURE REQUEST (BREVITY FIRE WATCH FOR SMOKE, FIRE AND EMBERS) WAS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION. OTHER THAN THE FOLLOWING HAMS - MWM, PDS, BZL, and PCR (3 OF THOSE ARE ALL IN THE VILLAGE and 2 are husband & wife), THERE WERE NO OTHER SHINGLETOWN HAMS THAT HELPED OUT.

At this very time, the Mckinney Fire (Siskiyou County) is in the local news and as of 8/5/2022 is 59,636 acres and only 10 percent contained. 4 Dead.

AS TO EMERGENCY RADIO OPERATIONS CENTER - VILLAGE CORE, IT IS FANTASTIC THAT WE HAVE SO MANY NON HAMS WHO ARE HELPING OUT. ALSO, THANK YOU TO THE HAMS THAT ARE HELPING. TOGETHER, WE HAVE AN EFFECTIVE AND OPERATING EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM. THANK YOU!

8/ 4/2022 DRILL FOR PRACTICE NET

DEAR RADIO OPERATORS:

THIS DRILL IS SIMILAR TO THE LAST DRILL - EXCEPT WE WILL USE ACTUAL TACTICALS (THIS IS A DRILL) WHICH MAY BE USED DURING A FIRE NET. THESE ARE TAKEN FROM THE INTERNET RESOURCE PAGE http://www.shastadefense.com/SER-Incident-Resources-Information.htm AND RADIO FREQUENCY LISTING.

Background: As you know in the event of an emergency (e.g., fire meeting certain criteria...) EROC Team Stations (Hams and Non Hams) may be directed to go to Channel 055 (760 repeater with TX capability). In that case, Fire Net operations would be conducted on 055 (instead of EROC 9 ), and in that case, EROC STATIONS would conduct the Fire Net on 055 (e.g., Tacticals: Flight Radar, Internet Camera, Internet Wind, Cal fire 20, etc...).

TACTICALS WILL BE ASSIGNED DURING THIS DRILL BECAUSE NON HAMS CAN'T TX ON 760 (NON EMERGENCY). BUT IN AN ACTUAL EVENT, FIRE CONTROL WOULD SAY "NEED INTERNET WINDS" ETC..., AND STATIONS WOULD VOLUNTEER TO PERFORM THE NEEDED TASK (I.E., ASSISTANCE THEY CAN ACTUALLY PROVIDE).

DRILL:

We will do a check in on EROC 9 (using standard procedures)

Then EROC stations will be directed to go to 055 (Non Hams are not to TX on 055 because this is only a drill).

Each EROC station that previously checked in on EROC 009 will be given a TACTICAL (e.g., " Foxtrot 1, INTERNET WINDS" ).

HAMS ON 055 will be given a TACTICAL and asked How copy.

Non Hams, unable to reach EROC 009 will be given a TACTICAL and they are requested to respond via e-mail

Example: "Non Hams unable to reach EROC 009 your TACTICAL IS "CAL FIRE 20". Please respond by e-mail.

Stations will be directed when to return to EROC 009.

On EROC 009 Net Control will request each station when called to read back their specific TACTICAL and how well they heard Net Control on 055 (e.g., loud and clear, readable, not readable).

Example: Net Control on EROC 009: " Foxtrot 1 go " :
Response " Foxtrot 1, INKS CAMERA loud and clear, out."

Net Control on EROC 009 " Roger Foxtrot 1" ...

Purposes / objectives:

To practice moving to / from 055.

Test your propagation from repeater.

GET ALL STATIONS FAMILIAR WITH THE TACTICALS WHICH WILL BE USED DURING A FIRE NET.

AFTER THE NET IS DONE, EACH STATION SHOULD GO TO THE INTERNET RESOURCE PAGE AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE RESOURCES LISTED.

Thank you.

08/01/2022 (2046) - CAL FIRE TONE OUT - POSSIBLE STRUCTURE FIRE CAMP MCCUMBER. Cal Fire responding. Deer Incident Command; TAC 11. PDS attempted radio contact with CS ON 760 - no response.

Silent monitoring (K6PDS) continued (during this process - power restored to Village - other areas still out- see below).

2058 hours. False Alarm .Cal Fire Cancelled all incoming. K6PDS.

08/01/2022 POWER OUTAGE:

1746 HOURS - VILLAGE REPORTS - POWER OUT (i1 L3 B6 C6, and others). (ON EROC 9 )

- Midway - power OUT (ON EROC 9 )

- Starlite (A1) (via e-mail / non ham) - POWER ON (thank you Starlite A1)

NOTE: WITHIN ABOUT 1 MINUTE - Village, Midway and Long Hollow all had coordinated and established Area Power Outage on EROC 9

AS OF 1810 HOURS both the Internet Statewide Power Outage site; and the PG& E outage map site still did NOT show any power outage. THAT IS 24 MINUTES AFTER THE POWER OUTAGE HAD ALREADY BEEN REPORTED ON EROC 9 SO THAT MIDWAY, LONG HOLLOW AND VILLAGE HAD IDEA OF EXTENT OF AREA POWER OUTAGE.

At about 1811 hours the PG & E Power outage map now showed the outage. But, as of 1813 hours, the State Wide Power outage map still did not show any outages.

PG & E message system called and advised Village F1 that as of 1756 hours 184 customers were impacted (but this was clearly false since the Village alone has approx. 400 homes). As of 1845 PG&E message system left follow up message that 1175 customers were without power and that PG&E was working to resolve.

2001 hours - power still out.

2052 hours - POWER RESTORED TO VILLAGE (REPORTS - F1, F7, F8 i1 S6 S9 T10 L3)

-Power still OUT FOR MIDWAY, LONG HOLLOW , INWOOD (VIL 7)

2149 hours - Midway reported Power restored (EROC 9).

Long Hollow - no response (EROC 9). Inwood - no response on Vill 7.

07/31/2022 - Frontier Land Line failure Div 3 North - Villiage (area with approx 400 homes) (thus no 911 or reverse 911 ability for those with Land Line only). Discovered 0745 HOURS. 0825 hours Village stations reporting area failure on EROC 9: F1, F7, F8, S3, L3, C1 (has only Cell phone): F1 called Frontier -which was not aware of outage. Frontier will escalate to common cause (cause not known at time of reporting). TX on 10 (760) of Div 3 North - Village outage. No other Divisions (Hams) responding. K6PDS.

Late afternoon - Frontier Land Line still not working. TX 760 - W6MWM responded (Rest Area - Div 3 North) - he no longer has Frontier - went to Starlink and has cell service that is working.

Follow up call to Frontier - I was this time told - "No technicians available, its Sunday, all are resting". Requested immediate manager call - I was told manager would call me on cell - NO call received.

Note: Midway 1 (Div 2 North) reported on EROC 9 - Frontier Land Line is working.

Starlite C2 (Div 4 North) responded to K6PDS TX on 760 that phones are working in starlite (C2 Responded via e-mail as requested on K6PDS TX on 760 radio).

07/312022 Village (Div 3 North) 1725 hours and 2300 hours; Frontier Land Line still not working (no dial tone).

08/01/2022 Village (Div 3 North) approx 0900 hours FRONTIER LAND LINES NOW WORKING.

Areas Responding in above matters: Village, Rest Area, Midway, Starlite.

NOTICE (July, 2022 - WILD FIRE SEASON): 760 repeater may be placed on Monitor only mode (no ability to transmit) due to abuse and harrassment by hams and non hams violating FCC rules. EROC TEAM (radio levels 1.5 and above) and HQ USE VILLAGE EROC PLAN. In the event 760 is periodically returned to Normal Operations, key stations may not be monitoring 760 due to the harrassment . Use Alternate EROC backup plan. If you (or your Area) are not part of the EROC Team system (and participating), you need to figure out your own emergency communications before a wild fire hits.

DATE OF NET OPERATIONS 07/28/2022 1900 HOURS

Other AREAS (ch 10 / 760) WITH POWER: Starlite (AJ6KJ); WILSON HILL (KK6SWE).

Total 19 radio reports.

[OBSERVATIONS NOTES DURING OUTAGE - START:

State power outage map on internet - shows ERRONEOUS INFORMATION - claims ONLY 184 customers out. (Village has 400+/- homes alone).

PG&E phone messages: 1st call also reflected erroneous information - claimed only 184 homes, and estimated restoral at 1300 hours. PG& E phone message at 0834 hours now advises 1175 customers impacted. Crews to be on site by 0853 "to determine cause" of outage. Thus, PG&E gave estimated time for restoration, above, before they even had crews on scene and before they have even determined the cause.

Observation: SER Radio reporting had MORE ACCURATE immediate reporting of extent of outage than PG&E reported (as well as the state power outage map on the internet which also reflected erroneous extent of outage).

0858 hours PG& E updated phone message: 1175 customers impacted; crew on site, "working to investigate and resolve".

0948 hours - power still out.

07/11/2022 1250 hours through 7/12/2022 1000 hours- Village Area Frontier Land Line Failure. Impact: no ability to receive reverse 911 or make 911 calls for those with land line service (RADIO REPORTS on Village EROC 9 FROM: F1, S6, F8, S3, and L3). Reports on 760 (Ch 10) - only 1 area responded (Wilson Hill (KK6SWE) - Land Line functioning). Other Shingletown Areas - no response.

Cell phone used to call Frontier, and was advised as follows:: it is a Frontier Network outage; technician aware; no estimated time for restoration of service; large area impacted but frontier unable to advise as to number of customers; Frontier confrmed outage escalated to Area outage. Outage Reference Number: 109922A308B6393D. NOTE: internet with Frontier is working at time of reports. K6PDS.

During the report intake, a person keyed the repeater multiple times in a very aggressive manner (no ID provided).

As of 7/11/2022 2018 hours; 2125 hours; 2340 hours; - Frontier Land Line Failure still existing (thus, over 10 + hours without ability to dial 911 or receive reverse 911 on Frontier Land Line -and we are in Fire Season).

07/12/2022 1000 hours: frontier land line service now operational - per reports of: F1 S6; S1; L3.

Note: Almost 24 hours without land line service in Village.

07/11/2022 - We need more Ham operators. The local ham club had their net tonight. They had 17 hams on their club net. Only 1 of those helps out with Shingletown Emergency Radio Communications. The Emergency Radio System has only a few hams helping. Most of the participants are non hams for emergency communications. We need more people to become Ham operators who are interested in emergency communications.
