Amateur radio nets are a useful means for amateur radio operators to communicate with other amateur radio operators.  Nets can be local, national or international.  As with many amateur radio activities, they are a means of practising for an emergency but also a means of building camaraderie.  

Radio Amateurs of Canada has a list of Canadian nets, including when they occur, at:  https://www.rac.ca/nets/ .  Many of these nets are national and on the HF bands.  Some are even through IRLP.  

YARS will be restarting the following net as of 4 April 2022:

• The Yellowknife Amateur Radio Society Information Net weekly every Monday at 1900 h on 146.940+ with tone 100 Hz (VE8YK repeater).  For the net script see: Weekly Information Net Script.
