Special Note: Bridges marked with an asterisk (*) denote the traffic type specified in the parenthesis has priority on that bridge, if needed.
All requests for private bridges will need to meet the following requirements:
It will be the HH policy to remove any private or public bridge that has been inactive 365 days or longer, and it will be deleted without further notice. Public and private bridges, when granted, are for 'routine use' and if your bridge has not been used in over 365 days, it is deemed inactive by policy. Any bridge removed for non-use, will not be eligible to re-apply for another bridge for a period of 60 days.
This policy is meant to keep unused bridges from taking up valuable server resources that could be allocated for other needs. Each and every bridge on our system is loaded into the servers memory at load time, and so unused bridges just sit there chewing away at the memory that really needs to be available for call quality. An excellent call quality experience is our top priority, so we must make sure unused bridges are removed to assist in maintaining that excellent call quality.

Effective 12/7/2022, any bridge that is for a club, will de-facto become owned by the club. If the 'responsible party' voluntarily leaves the club, or if the club reaches out to HH and requests the 'responsible party' be changed, HH will follow the wishes of the club in regards to the listed/published 'responsible party' for the club bridge.
Effective 01/01/2025 HH will no longer grant certain groups protection from having their bridge removed for non-use. HH used to allow groups like ARES, RACES, MARS, AUXCOM, VE-EXAMs, WX-ALERTs etc, to be exempted from the 'non-use removal' policy. HH has now revised our policy to be of this mindset. If your bridge has not been used in more than 365 days, then that is proof enough it wasn't really needed. HH maintains several public bridges that can be used by any group, including those with just an intermitent need when an emergency arises.
Any Bridge that has not been used in more than 365 day is subject to removal, without further notice. This IS your notice.
