Before we begin the net, let us pause for a while for the Kabalikat opening prayer
KABALIKAT OPENING PRAYER
Panalangin ng Kabalikat sa Pagbabago. Ilagay ang ating pag-iisip sa piling ng
Panginoon:
Dakilang Diyos na makapangyarihan sa lahat, iyong sinabi na sino man ang
magpulong sa ngalan Mo ay iyong sasamahan. Sinasamo namin na dinggin Mo ang
panalangin ng Kabalikat sa pagbabago:
Hayaang maging magilas at matatag ang aking pag-iisip, minamahal naming Diyos,
ngunit huwag hayaang maglaho ang hinahon sa pagbubukas ng mga isipang
naliligalig sa kailangang pagbabago.
Hayaang ituring ko ang stratehiya na laging bukas ang isipan, hayaang kilalanin ko
lahat ng Kabalikat saan man nanggaling.
Hayaang kalimutan ko lahat ng bansag liban sa mga nagsasabi ng kapatid at
kaibigan.
Hayaan akong makinig sa katotohanan sa lahat ng wika, klima at kultura; hayaang
ingatan ko ang katotohanang ito sa aking kalooban, siklutin ng kalituhan, paglilitis o
pagkahapo.
Hayaang malagas ang aking maling palagay tulad ng luma’t gulanit na damit at sa
kahubdan ng kaluluwa’y maluwag na tanggapin lahat ng humihingi ng anumang
tulong na aking maihahandog.
Hayaan akong laging mapagmatyag sa pangangailangan ng iba, hamak man o
dakila; hayaan akong tumugon sa mga pangangailangan ito, saan man o anumang
paraan sa abot ng aking makakaya.
Hayaan akong maging mapaglingkod at mapagkumbaba, batid ang aking pagiging
hamak sa gitna ng kamanghamanghang kilusan ng lahat.
Ang lahat ng ito ay aming isinasamo sa pamamagitan ng Dakilang Tagapaglikha ng
langit, lupa at ang pagitan nito. AMEN.

NET PROPER
(We proceed to the net proper)
Welcome to Zello Worldwide Net Call of Kabalikat Civicom Desert Base.
Kabalikat Civic Communicators Association, Incorporated or simply known as
Kabalikat Civicom is presently the largest group of responsible and active radio
communicators engaged in public assistance particularly during disasters and natural
calamities or whenever there is need to ensure public comfort and convenience.
Kabalikat Civicom utilizes all means of communication system from among the
members.
It is a non-stock, non-profit civic organization whose noblest motive is the public
welfare. As of today, the Kabalikat Civicom has already more than 900 Chartered
Chapters nationwide stretching from the uppermost of Luzon to Balot Island of Region
XI in the southeast Maitum, Sarangani Province in the southwest and more Kabalikat
Civicom chapters overseas.
In the early 90's, Sir Gil Romantico de la Torre received a portable two-way radio,
Icom 02AT from Ariel A.Suguitan, since then his dream of utilizing radio for social
change begins.

KABALIKAT DESERT BASE ZELLO WORLDWIDE NET CALL GUIDE
Most radio modulations on community bands have been fragmented and without
direction for several decades, with most frequencies so occupied with unnecessary
modulations or stymied by jammers that when the need calls for immediate radio
assistance for relay of urgent messages, the responsible communicator when
available, could hardly cope with exigency. Sadly, most of the time he was
unavailable. To help remedy the situation, some responsible communicators banded
themselves into a developmental radio group that is truly responsive to the needs of
the community.
De la Torre named Mediacom to be a radio group dedicated for the public welfare. Its
name can be traced back from civic organization which he first founded Media
Dynamics in 1975. This organization had assisted poor but deserving students
pursued their studies in college thru sponsorship of several kindhearted individuals
and philanthropists.
In 1991 the registration of Mediacom group at the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) was not considered. A group of RMN-DZXL newscasters had
already registered it in the late 80’s. Following this, De la Torre had coined the word
Radiocom in place of Mediacom. And, to promote Filipino gung-ho spirit, the name
Kabalikat Radiocom was adopted. Thus, Kabalikat Radiocom, originally conceived
and established by Sir Gil de la Torre was registered in 1992 under SEC Registration
No. 92-755.
Aside from Radiocom, he had also organized several radio communication groups in
Metro Manila to assist Kabalikat in communication linkages and services for effective
networking. Among these are: Kamagong Radio Assistance Group (KRAG) based in
Cubao, QC, Lakas Antipolo Radio Communicators League (LARCOM) in Antipolo,
Rizal; Youth Assistance Civic Action Group (YACAG) in Sampaloc, Manila; Group of
Youth Assistance Communicators (GRAYCOM) Paco; He also assisted in the
establishment of CAVERS, a CB-VHF radio communicators group in Montalban,
Rizal.
However, in the later part of 1993, a certain quarter in the Manila Chapter, the first
Kabalikat group established by De la Torre, do not lived up the Kabalikat ideals and
created factionalism among members. It should be noted that 50 out of 51 Kabalikat
existing chapters signified adherence to the renaming of the group into Kabalikat
Civicom and recognizing it as the national organization.
This group subsequently developed into a worldwide communication network of civic
volunteers, became a prime mover that immediately, or at the soonest possible time,
responded to any exigencies or emergencies that arose. Registered and authorized
by the National Telecommunications Commission to operate several base, mobile
and portable radios nationwide. The Kabalikat Civicom has been granted NTC
authorized network license number 125798 and Station Call sign 4DW-656.
The Kabalikat Civicom is a developmental communication group of several radio and
television stations nationwide and an Ombudsman CPU (Corruption Prevention Unit).

Recently, the Kabalikat Civicom had entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with
several government agencies, to wit: Department of Transportation and
Communications, Department of Interior and Local Government, Metropolitan Manila
Development Authority and the Philippine National Police, to name a few. It is
interesting to note, aside from its kabalikat groups in VHF, HF, SSB and CB, it had
organized a nationwide network of mobile phones communicators and established the
largest network of worldwide web of civic communicators.
Thus, the organization originally conceived as a mere responsible civic
communication body, has now grown in today’s worldwide Kabalikat Civicom, to serve
as link to the complex network of active communication efforts geared towards nation
building.
