SUMMARY:Shelter Surveys - Castle Rock area
DESCRIPTION:ARES® R1D5 is scheduled to conduct surveys of four facilities designated by the Douglas County Office of Emergency Management (OEM) as priority emergency shelters. These surveys allow preparation and update of Key Location Forms that detail information necessary for ARES to respond to a shelter activation in a timely manner with the right communications equipment. \nThe crux of the surveys is propagation testing. We’ll be testing our primary amateur analog/DMR repeaters\, Winlink RMS Gateways\, and Simplex communication with the Douglas County EOC. \n\nWe’ll need one or two volunteers who can bring a GO-KIT radio (at least one DMR) along with at least a speaker stand antenna to test voice/Winlink performance from the shelters.\nWe could also use a badged DC AuxComm member to help support the survey from the Douglas County EOC using the installed AnyTone 578 transceiver.\n\nWe’re planning to meet in Castle Rock for breakfast and a review of everyone’s job\, followed by a 0900 hard start for the surveys. If you would like to share some camaraderie and help on this readiness mission\, please contact Hal/KE0KFB\, AEC-OPS.

SUMMARY:February Face-to-Face: FCC RF Exposure Rules - Staying Safe & Compliant
DESCRIPTION:Our February Face-to-Face meeting will deal with a very important topic that is of interest to every licensed Ham Radio Operator! \nWe are going to talk about how to stay safe and compliant with FCC Radio Frequency Exposure rules.  How to keep your station safe and in compliance with FCC exposure and record keeping rules that apply to all licensed Amateurs. New FCC Rules have been implemented and the transition (i.e.\, grace) period ended on May 3\, 2023. The presentation focuses on the use of the ARRL on-line calculators that are one (relatively easy) means of performing an RF Exposure Safety evaluation of your fixed and mobile stations. \nWhen obtaining or renewing their FCC License\, all Amateurs have certified that they have read and will comply with FCC rules regarding RF Radiation Safety. But did you know the method of determining whether your station needs to be evaluated and the new formula-based methods of ensuring compliance?  All amateurs operating transmitters (except HTs) in the U.S. today are expected to comply and provide documentation to the FCC upon request. Can you?   What do you need to do to get into and remain in compliance? \nCOME AND FIND OUT!!\n  \n
