Online Club Meetings Ease Shelter-In-Place Isolation
by Lee Chambers, KI7SS, and Phil Cornell, W7PLC |
| Under a “stay home” order due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Washington state’s Olympia Amateur Radio Society (OARS) members were feeling the impacts of isolation, missing the camaraderie of meetings, programs, and much more.

Go-Kit Basics
Preparing an efficient go-kit ensures you are ready when a deployment call comes
by Caroline Kenney |
For emergency communications operators, being prepared for a deployment involves a wide range of considerations. In the event of an emergency, a disaster, a public service deployment, or a power outage, as an emergency communications operator, you are responsible for serving while staying safe, healthy, and clean, without access to everyday resources. Assembling a go-kit, also known as a go-bag or a ready kit, ensures that your necessary equipment, supplies, and personal belongings are ready when you need them.
