What is needed?
We use VHF and UHF FM voice communications plus APRS for vehicle tracking. Radio operators are needed for multiple positions. You can volunteer your time and equipment by signing up. Click on sign-up at the top of the page or here.
There are many positions available to non-licensed individuals. Make it a family event! We can team you up with a licensed ham and you may get on the air using their license. Equipment, set-up, tear-down, recruitment, education, planning, and more, are examples of the positions available.
