[MarinTeams] Team Radio Communications Class Tonight 7:00-9:00 PM

[Bill Smith]

This is the fourth course of our Communication Classes.  Communications in
Amateur radio has been demonstrated to be a durable resource in austere
conditions.  Tonight, we discuss how we can utilize communications skills as
a service by using an established protocol to transfer written messages.  A
cell phone and tablet will also be used to transfer messages digitally using
amateur radio.  This is a great class to attend if you are just getting
started, or need a review.

Join us tonight (Thursday) from 7:00 - 9:00pm in fourth of a series of
communication classes in our ongoing communications training.  We will
repeat the classes in Series 2 beginning March 29. The classes offer a first
introduction to radio, and we hope a fun introduction to radio
communications.  We will have our Basic Training Manual and ICS manual
available.  There is no charge for the class which is open to all licensed
amateur radio operators.
