Welcome Joe! You've selected a great group to align with. Lots of experience and knowledge. Not sure of your interest in emergency radio communications but, the Auxcomm(Auxiliary Communications)group meets on the 3rd Thursday of the month at 7pm. Right now we're doing an every other month in-person schedule with the non in-person month being used for on-air emcomm related practice(digital modes, Nat'l Traffic System message handling, net practice,etc.). If that's something that interests you, we'd love to have you. We'll be meeting in-person This month on the 20th at the Public Safety Building at 315  Stafford Rd.(next to the jail off Rt. 231). This month we'll be assisting folks with getting connected with digital mode equipment. Feel free to come by.
