Work Parties - UPDATE

RACES is refurbishing our antenna installation at the EOC.

Work on the tower itself was continued all day on June 20th and June 21st. Much of  upgrade work was completed, but due to problems with the manlift, some work on the tower remains to be completed. The tentative schedule for the completion will be July 11th.

If you can help, even for just a few hours , we can use your help.

 Stay tuned.

Anyone serious about Emergency Support should have a go-kit, or maybe more than one. It may be something you keep in the car or something mostly packed and ready to go at home. Even if you don't have one, you should think about what you might need to have in case of an emergency.

This is a presentation that Dan O’Connor, KE7HLR made at EMCOMMWEST in 2008. It's a rather large PDF file (about 3Meg). If you don't have a high speed connection, I suggest downloading it, and reading it off line. It's great 'food for thought' and well worth the read. I found myself mentally comparing Dan's ideas to what I have assembled and thinking about what I might want to add.
