[MarinTeams] Radio Tests, San Rafael and Novato

[Marjorie Schwier]

			CERT Radio still needs volunteers to participate in the radio tests scheduled for
			San Rafael and Novato.  There is still time to respond and be part of this
			exciting and useful project.

			If you missed the earlier email regarding these tests, they are being conducted as
			part of a project to map radio connections throughout the county, using 5 watt
			handheld radios.  They will be published on the CERT Radio Website and will
			be provided to all CERT Radio members.  The resulting maps will be very useful
			to all radio communities in the event of a disaster.
			
			The first test (San Rafael) is Saturday, 9/22/12.  The second test (Novato) is Monday, 10/1/12.
			We especially need participants for the Novato test.  The time is from 0800 to noon.

			The tests will be conducted by teams of two-one radio operator and one scribe, so if
			you know someone who would like to be part of the team, but doesn't have an amateur
			radio license, they can still participate.

			We are currently forming the teams and choosing locations.  If you would like to be
			part of this project, please contact me.
