Any HF nets that lean towards retired public safety personnel?
« on: January 07, 2023, 08:14:11 AM »

Hello all,
Like the title says, are there any HF regional or national nets or chat groups that lean towards retired LE
or Fire Dept. members. I'm looking to expand on my limited HF rag chewing skills ( or lack thereof Hi-Hi! )
Thanks for any reply.

You might check with N7WR, Jerry Boyd. He has an extensive background in LE and may know of something. He is on {in} QRZ. 73's David (MCSO AZ, armed posse)

You could always start one. There are a lot of retired and current 1st Responders (LEO's, Firefighters, EMS) here on eHam. Myself being one.

Though current or retired LE/PS folks may be members of those nets, they're by no means limited to hams in the LE/PS fields.

You're more likely to find active focus groups of them on Facebook, Twitter and the like.
