[ARRL-OK] EVC Survey Request

[Eddie Manley]

Please note ..........................

ARRL / ARES is looking for your input on emergency communication vehicles. 
I have seen many excellent ECV's all over this State.  If you have not 
already responded to this survey, then please take the time to complete this 
request.  Thanks

FROM THE ARES e-letter  Oct 18 2006
+ The National Emergency Response Planning Committee has prepared an on-line 
survey that hopes to garner information leading to a better
understanding of emergency communications vehicles and how they are used and 
equipped.  If you own such a vehicle, or are in charge of
one, please fill out the survey found here: http://www.bullock.org/nerpc/ 
If such a vehicle is owned and operated by a group, please designate one 
person to answer the survey.  Results will be published in 2007.  Questions 
regarding the survey may be directed to wa5tmc at arrl.org.

FROM THE ARRL NEWLETTER - 12/02/06
* ARRL still seeking data on mobile emergency communications vehicles: The 
League's National Emergency Response Planning Committee (NERPC) continues to 
invite responses from clubs or groups having access to an emergency 
communications vehicle (ECV). An initial appeal was included recently in The 
ARES E-Letter <http://www.arrl.org/FandES/field/ares-el/>. If your group has 
an ECV and has not yet participated in the survey, please have someone take 
a few minutes and be a part of this effort. The Committee's response to the 
ARRL Board is due in January. A number of responses have been received to 
date, but the Committee wants to collect as much information as possible to 
develop its report. As of November 29, clubs and groups had entered 29 ECVs 
into the survey database. Most ECVs are owned by individuals or local 
governments, 14 have portable repeaters onboard and another 25 have their 
own power generators. This information will help determine what assets are 
available and help in planning for future disasters. To participate, visit 
the Emergency Communications Vehicle Survey Web site
