Towards a new RAYNET: a joint
statement by the RSGB and The Radio Amateurs’ Emergency
Network
For 60 years, RAYNET groups have been
offering the community a unique service — emergency
communications independent of infrastructure which is
vulnerable to disruption by natural causes or
technological failure.
The leadership of the Radio
Society of Great Britain (RSGB) and the Radio Amateurs’
Emergency Network (RAEN) believe there are considerable
benefits to there being one RAYNET organisation. This is
also the view of many RAYNET Group members. Not only
would it improve service to the community, it would
benefit the interests and the image of Amateur Radio as
a whole.
The Board of the RSGB and the Committee of
Management of RAEN have agreed to the formation of a
Joint Working Group to facilitate a closer working
relationship between the two organisations. It will also
explore ways in which RAYNET could become a single,
unified body that would support and co-ordinate the work
of all groups and members.
