Baltimore Traffic Net

Meeting daily at 6:30 PM (local) on

the 146.670 repeater (backup 145.330)


The Baltimore Traffic Net (BTN) is a directed, local net of the ARRL National Traffic System (NTS).  Its purpose is to handle traffic throughout the coverage area of the repeater.  It provides an opportunity for amateur radio operators interested in traffic handling to improve their skills and provide a service to the general community.

The BTN meets every night at 6:30 PM (local time) on the 146.670 repeater to pass traffic throughout the repeater's coverage area.  If the 146.670 repeater is not operational, the backup is the 145.330 repeater.  Liaisons from the Maryland Emergency Phone Net (MEPN) and to the Maryland Delaware DC (MDD) net are available.  All appropriately licensed amateur operators are invited to participate in BTN operations.
