When: Monday June 17th , 6:00 pm until 9:00 pm
Where: City of Maumee Fire Department Station Number One
220 Illinois Ave, Maumee, OH 43537
Purpose: TAMRAD Outings take place once every month all year long, rain or shine. We gather at a common location, set up and operate portable HF, VHF, and Microwave stations. This provides an opportunity to hone our skills in rapid and efficient deployment of Amateur Radio stations in the field in what are often times non-optimum conditions.
Readiness: Regular practice results in better preparedness to respond to deployments in any times of emergency. By participating you will improve your skills for events such as OHR, POTA, SOTA, Red-Cross Shelters, SHTF, etc. And this better prepares us for the annual “Field Day” event.
Go-Kits: Our “Go-Kits” get better and better each time we do a TAMRAD Outing. We get better at *not* leaving items behind and assuring we have everything we need to make a deployment. A certain “competition” naturally occurs as team members strive to create the best Go-Kit, ever! 🙂
Having something to set up is *NOT* a requirement. Simply come on out to mingle, exchange ideas, learn, and to just have FUN!!! When 8pm rolls around, TAMRAD calls out for station checks on the 146.835 MHz repeater. Alternate repeater is 147.270/442.850
