SUMMARY:ARRL Field Day 2025
DESCRIPTION:ARRL Field Day is the most popular on-the-air event held annually in the US and Canada. On the fourth weekend of June\, more than 35\,000 radio amateurs gather with their clubs\, groups or simply with friends to operate from remote locations.  The event called Field Day\, encourages hams to set up antennas and radios outdoors in the “Field” and make as many radio contacts with other hams as is possible in a 24-hour period. \nThe purpose of Field Day is to simulate a national level disaster where normal communications infrastructure is impacted over a wide area. Hams\, also known as amateur radio operators\, have a long history of providing communications during local and national emergencies and disasters. The Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) of Douglas and Elbert Counties has organized a Field Day location in the Parker area at Rueter-Hess Reservoir\, 9343 Double Angel Road\, Parker. This location is off Stroh Road\, south of Hess Road\, on the southeast side of the Rueter-Hess Reservoir. Here is a Google Map Link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bWw3m4VVxYS28w8n9.\n \nThe exact GPS coordinates are: 39.478959084187515\, -104.81674008006836 \nSetup begins at 12:00 PM on Friday\, and the beginning of actual Field Day activities/communications start at 12:00 PM on Saturday and continuing for 24 hours until 12:00 PM on Sunday.  And not a drop of AC power is used to communicate across the globe.  Amazing\, right? \nARES of Douglas and Elbert Counties will be making ham radio contacts from a NEW Field Day location. The public is invited to check out Field Day and come see what ham radio is all about. \n \n \nPeter\, W0OW (left) and Bill\, KF0CWS (right). \nEveryone is welcome to come and see what happens at Field Day!\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Shelter Site Surveys
DESCRIPTION:ARES® R1D5 is scheduled to conduct a survey of a publicly accessible facility designated by either the Douglas County Office of Emergency Management (DC OEM) or the Elbert County Office of Emergency Management (EC OEM) as a priority emergency shelter.  This survey will allow preparation and update of an ARES® Key Location Form that details information necessary for deployed teams to respond to a shelter activation in a timely manner with the right communications equipment. \nThe crux of a shelter survey is propagation testing. We’ll be testing our primary amateur analog/DMR repeaters\, Winlink RMS Gateways\, and Simplex communication with either the Douglas County EOC or Elbert County EOC.  The purpose is to determine how much antenna and radio capability deployed teams need to bring to the facility to operate effectively. \nWe can use ARES volunteers who wish to participate with their analog and/or DMR GO-KIT radio\, Winlink computer\, and speaker stand antenna to test voice/Winlink performance from the shelter. This is a great opportunity to test your equipment in the field. \n\nARES members are also welcome to participate in the survey without bringing their own portable GO-KIT equipment.\nSurvey participants need to wear their ARES uniform and Colorado Volunteer Mobilizer (CVM) identification badge.\nAuxComm members deploying to the DC EOC or EC EOC should wear their AuxComm badge for access to the EOC + uniform.\n\nIf you would like to help out\, share some camaraderie\, learn how shelters surveys are accomplished\, and see a premier Douglas County or Elbert County pre-designated shelter\, contact Operations@aresdec.org. \n \n\n\n	Related
