We have received the following report from 13HS679, Bernie regarding a temporary Emergency Frequency call frequency that was tested today on HamSphere. It shall be noted that HamSphere is not suitable nor designed to conduct live emergency calls and cannot be held liable for any emergency networks created here. However, it may be useful as a training facility for a real shortwave emergency net.

From 13HS679, Bernie
Date: 11 April 2012

During the tsunami warnings in Indonesia and the Indian ocean today operators on HamSphere successfully implemented an international emergency call frequency on 7.075.

Many stations in that region and myself helped to keep it clear for reports of the Indonesian warning center and I put in the chat the latest news of several institutions.

I was impressed about the discipline of the involved stations until these warnings were closed. It was like a rehearse for a big disaster which hopefully never will take place in future.
