The DC Emergency Radio Network is an alternate means of communication for people throughout the Washington, DC area during an emergency. In the event of a neighborhood or area-wide power, telephone or Internet failure, DCERN can keep you in touch.
DCERN uses Family Radio Service (FRS) and General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS) radios on channel 1, no subchannel.
FRS and GMRS radios are those little handheld walkie-talkie radios that family and friends use to keep in touch at parks, on ski slopes and in malls.
If there’s an emergency, tune your radio to channel 1. DCERN may be your pipeline to emergency help and information.

List members might also be interested in joining the city's largest neighborhood listserv,
Cleveland Park.
