Today for Bands and Modes we’ll be trying 6 meters. After the usual 10M eagle net activity we’ll move to 6 Meters FM 52.515mhz. From there maybe 6M C4FM or SSB. I’m really intrigued by the 6 Meter Band. It’s open to all hams and you can work all modes on it. So, come join the fun on 10 meters 28.360mhz USB at 20:00 hrs. Them we’ll go 6 Meter multi mode starting with FM at 52.515mhz.
Man made or natural disasters of big enough scope can overwhelm our normal lines of communication. Land lines, cell systems and the internet may be gone or unreliable. It may take days or weeks to bring in the infrastructure necessary to restore communications. This is where ARES can provide vital communications resources for the responders and the public.
Every licensed amateur, regardless of membership in ARRL® or any other local or national organization, is eligible to apply for membership in ARES.
Our hobby is based on the desire to communicate, and the use of technology to do so. Why not put that to good use by serving your community in times of need.
