** All regions, for use in actual disasters only

The High Frequency Global Communications System (HFGCS) is a US worldwide network of 14 high-power HF stations providing air/ground HF command and control radio communications between ground agencies and US military aircraft and ships. Allied military and other aircraft are also provided support in accordance with agreements, and international protocols, as appropriate.

HFGCS is controlled remotely from the Centralized Network Control Station (CNCS) at Andrews AFB, MD.

The HFGCS is not dedicated to any service or command, but supports all DoD authorized users on a traffic precedence/priority basis. General services provided by the HFGCS are:

• General Phone Patch and Message Relay Services

• Automatic Link Establishment (ALE)

• HF Data Support (AUTODIN/NOVA and SACCS)

• Command and Control Mission Following

• Emergency Assistance

• Broadcasts

• HF Direction Finding Assistance

• ATC Support

• E-Mail connectivity to NIPRNeT and SIPRNet

• Secure calls (not phone patch) via dedicated circuits can be made from AMC aircraft -TACC-AMC aircraft (Tanker airlift control centre)

HFGCS stations operate on “core” frequencies to provide increased "Global" coverage. The published frequency listing does not reflect complete system frequency authorizations. These published frequencies will be used for initial contact, EAM broadcasts, and short-term C2 phone patch and message delivery. Other extended or special services will be moved to each station’s available "discrete" frequencies.
