Alpine Fault Network

The Alpine Fault Network (AFN) is a team of New Zealand volunteer amateur radio operators passionate about disaster relief communication using high frequency (HF) radio.

AFN is coordinated by amateur radio operator Peter Mott, callsign ZL3PWM.

We prepare for all types of disaster, including earthquakes, tsunamis, tropical cyclones, storms, floods, wildfires, and nationwide electricity outages.

Because disasters can happen anywhere, amateur radio operators located in all regions of New Zealand are invited to join AFN.

Our training nets enable you to test your equipment and practice voice reporting using standardised scripts.
