Line 3: Line 3:
Propagation is more important than exact location so you may want to start by briefly listening on two frequencies and choosing the one that has the clearest signal. There is a chance, however, that propagation won't be symmetric so that a subnet controller that you can hear clearly may not be able to hear you well and vice versa for the other subnet.  In that case, you might have to try one and then the other. Don't give up if neither seems to be working well, however, because after the main check in, the controller will usually ask for one of the stations already checked in to ask for additional check ins from those who are having trouble hearing or reaching the controller.

Things to worry about later: The subnet controllers tend to vary from one exercise or deployment to another and sometimes their equipment will change. So, the best region to check into may vary from one exercise to another.  It may also vary based on whether you’re checking in from home or from your team’s staging area.  If you find two regions that work equally well, you could break the tie by choosing the one used by teams that adjoin your team geographically.
