PRIMARY TASK 4:

Perform Passive Late Net Entry

Required when an operator's radio sync time becomes greater than

plus or minus 4 seconds, but not more than one minute, different from

net sync time. The Passive Late Net Entry process enables an operator

to re-enter the net without requiring action on the part of the NCS or

other net operators.

PRIMARY TASK 5:

Obtain SOI information from ANCD

SOI information electronically stored in the ANCD replaces the paper

SOI extract. The ANCD SOI program is used when Information on nets,

suffixes, pyro/smoke, sign/countersign is needed. It may be used to

view quick reference (QREF) related items in group, time period, set,

find, and memo. It may also be used to obtain the net ID of a net that is

not a part of the loadset being used.
