[OFARC] EMP PREPARATION STUDY

[ARS W5OMR]

Amateur radio has been a cornerstone of redundant and emergency com-
munications for decades. Many member-owned radio stations are built with
EMP and power grid–down considerations in mind. ARRL volunteer members
have experience and awareness of space weather effects and emergency com-
munications. Additionally, the military has a long-standing relationship
with
the HAM radio community through the Military Auxiliary Radio System
(MARS, https://www.mars.af.mil/, http://www.marsradioglobal.us/). EDTF
recommends inviting American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and MARS rep-
resentatives to future EDTF discussions.
