ARES R1D6 Special Speaker Series “The Code Plug Briefing”
*R1D6 Guest Speaker Night — Sep 15* 
ARESDEC’s own KF0PAY is presenting *The Code Plug Briefing* at this month’s R1D6 F2F Zoom — how one district automated its way out of a problem every ARES unit eventually hits: more radios, older volunteers, no time to keep up by hand.
*What you’ll see:*• Why a fleet spanning budget handhelds, analog mobiles, and DMR digital radios turned code-plug programming into a full-time job for 1–2 people• A *live demo* — Master Code Plug in, ready-to-load file out, in minutes instead of an evening per radio• Real field verification, including a stale channel caught before it ever reached a mission• How this frees up your most experienced volunteers _and_ opens a real door for newer members to help
*Bring this:* got a radio? Pull a real channel export from its programming software (Make, Model, and the software used) — it’s the #1 way to help right now.
Open to all ARESDEC members, not just R1D6.
