Note: Whereas the mnomic address "RACES" is used in the packet radio "TO" line, we point out that they are not written solely for and by RACES personnel. They are written for and by all manner of COMMUNICATIONS VOLUNTEERS IN GOVERNMENT SERVICE. This is the primary reason the State of California changed the name in 1990 from the State RACES to the State Auxiliary Radio Service. The AUXRS includes all manner on hams, non-hams, CAP, commercial, state and federal government frequencies and resources. We urge all levels of government to take this broad approach to augment their regular communications. We had at one time proposed changing the mnomic from RACES to COVIGS, but PBBS sysops all over the country said, "Don't! Our software automatically routes and stores all RACES Bulletins and messages addressed to RACES. Please don't change. Far be it from us to thwart the unsung heroes of the Amateur Radio Service --- the packet radio sysops!
