The Intercontinental Amateur Traffic Net (Intercon) operates daily on 14.300 MHz, providing a platform for emergency communications and facilitating third-party traffic among amateur radio operators. Established in 1960, the net aims to foster goodwill and friendly relations within the ham community. It operates from 0700 to 1200 Eastern Time, with a focus on monitoring emergency traffic while encouraging operators to maintain a distance of at least 5 kHz to avoid interference. All licensed General Class operators and above are welcome to check in, using standard phonetics for clarity. The net features rotating Net Control Station (NCS) operators every hour, ensuring a diverse range of voices and experiences. Operators are encouraged to provide relays and assist with emergency traffic when necessary. While there is currently no membership for non-NCS operators, opportunities exist for those interested in becoming NCS operators. The net emphasizes professionalism and courtesy, making it a valuable resource for both emergency communications and casual check-ins.

Position Reports and Float Plans are essential components that ensure safety for offshore passage makers. Established in the early sixties, the Waterway Net is one of the longest-running nets in amateur radio history. Open to all amateur radio operators with a General class license or higher, it encourages participation without requiring WRCC membership. Newcomers are advised to listen initially to understand net procedures before checking in.
