[K4RY] Simulated Emergency Test

Tue Oct 7 19:45:54 CDT 2014

I will add that anyone with or without a license can operate the radio as long as the licensed operator is 'in control' of the transmitter in accordance with his or her license class.  

So, if a non-licensed person wants to play during the SET, they are welcome to go along for the fun as long as there is a licensed operator that can prohibit transmissions.  Non-licensed folks can be a lot of help during these simulations and the real thing.

Nothing except those that want to volunteer for the four locations that need ham radio operators to
deliver messages from the EMA and get a response.

See you folks tomorrow night at 6pm.

I am excited that the AUARC members will make a good contribution to the score for the AU/Lee/Russell SET score.

Licensed hams of all ages and levels:

If you are available next Friday, October 11, between 1:00pm and 4:00pm, the simulated emergency test needs your help!

Once a year, everyone gets together in the name of emergency preparedness for a multi-hour emergency drill.  Alabama’s simulated emergency tests have come in first in the nation for the past two years, and they’re hoping to make it a third.  Volunteers are needed to go out to a few locations around Auburn for three hours to read scripted notifications on the radio.

All radio communication will be on the 2m repeater, and as I said, there will be a script.  If you’re unlicensed but still want to help, we’d love to have someone shadowing/observing so that once you are licensed, you’ll know what’s going on and be able to help in the future.

RSVP if you are interested in helping out, as well as if you have a preference as to which location you’d like to help with.  The more participants, the better!  Ideally, we will have two radio operators at each location.  Volunteers will be briefed at next week’s AUARC meeting (7 October, 18:00, Broun Hall). 

Here’s a list of location options:

·         Southwest Volunteer Fire Dept on Wire Road

·         AU Medical Clinic (on campus)

·         AU Public Safety

·         Loachapoka Volunteer Fire on Highway 14 in Loachapoka, just 5 miles west of Shug Jordan Parkway/Hwy 14 bridge.

Community service is a big part of what amateur radio is all about.  Please let us know as soon as possible if you can assist with this! 

Thanks,

SueAnne Griffith, KK4UWV

AUARC Vice President
