Hello, this is Ron Thomas talking....
Cascadia Peril is an exercise that starts this Sunday and runs through Wednesday, April 29th. CERT will be the primary ground agency working with the Coast Guard. HAM operators will be establishing a communications backbone link tying areas of operation together with a central NET Control.The plan is for several flyovers at points in the county that have been designated as places where supplies can be distributed from and medical equipment and injured can be picked up following a major disaster.
Although CERT has some trained HAM operators, it does not have enough to cover all the points that should be covered. If you would like to participate you would be welcomed. You need not cover but one day or you can work multiple days.
The time would be about 2 1/2 hours per day from 9:30 to 12:00pm plus travel time to your assigned location. Points of assignment can be as far north as Neskowin and into the forest to east Eddyville, Nashville and south to Yahats and Fisher.
Table Mountain Repeater will be used. If you have learned how to take, send and log messages that would be a plus but is not a requirement.
Interested ? Contact me pronto.... teckron@gmail.com
