We will be doing online weather spotter training this Thursday evening, starting at 6:30 pm. As the weather yesterday showed, the quiet summer weather has ended, with our severe weather/wet season starting. This training is
optional, but if you need training/re-training you can sign up below. If you know someone who is interested, please forward them the link.
It’s recommended to install the free Webinar software (provided through the link) before the meeting time, as it can take several minutes to download and set up.

Good Afternoon,
I would like to take this opportunity to commend all members of the local TCARES Radio Club along with volunteers from the Calaveras Radio Club and the Amateur Radio Community who donated their time and equipment, working with County OES during the Rim Fire.
Here is a form which was submitted to the ARRL ( American Radio Relay league) Detailing Amateur ( Ham) Radio Involvement.
Thank you to All

Interesting read:
MOTOTRBO (a.k.a. TRBO) is a Motorola Solutions branded DMR Radio. MOTOTRBO has a few more features than a standard DMR radio including IP Site Connect, which we use to network our repeaters in the USA, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Spain, Canada, Switzerland, Austria, Finland, Sweden, Italy, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and Romania. When one person transmits, all of the repeaters are keyed up on our network without the user having to fumble through finding node numbers or access codes. All of our repeaters are networked 24/7. Our network is 100% DMR digital with no analog connections.
