Are you able to organize freepers to resources available in a blackout situation?

Either in a thread or content you post to me here to put in a thread. My title shows my inexperience. I’d like you to be able to meet ‘n greet others with experience and organize information for FReepers.

Alot to ask, I know.

We alrady have a national organization (www.arrl.org) and each state has whats called ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Services) that are trained and equipped to help already in place.

ARES isn’t what were talking about here.

And RACES. Each community of any size should have a group affiliated with the Emergency Management system for your state.

Several years ago we were activated to communicate between hospitals during a weather emergency that cut off parts of our region.

Fun stuff.
