Folks,
We have arranged for Deputy Brad Smith of the County Sheriff's
Department to give us a short class on traffic management and safety.
This will cover basic safety issues when you have to pull off the road
(on fire watch for example), set up a fixed post (fire watch or event
communications), set up barricades (parades), and manage and direct
traffic safely.
While it is NOT our responsibility to direct traffic or assist with
traffic control, there are times when accidents happen and we are in a
position to help. There are also time when we want to avoid becoming a
hazard and causing an accident. This class is meant to give you basic
safety information to allow you to help mitigate the danger until the
professionals arrive -- not unlike first aid.
This class is for ARES members and SBARC members who participate in
event communications activities. it will be held on Monday, November
17th, at 7 p.m. in the County Health Services Auditorium. If you would
like to attend this class, please e-mail me to make a reservation for
the class.
73,
Lou
My Kenwood has just started acting up. Here are the symptoms:
When I key down, the TX meter appears briefly and then it quites.
Followed by intermittent beeps.
I was unable to check into the Net at 9 PM tonight due to this problem.
I have done a full reset and problem still persists.
Any ideas for a cure?

Follows is an e-mail I received from Fred Davison, N6ZV, regarding the
passing of S. M. "Gus" Gustafson.

He'd been walking and talking, visiting with a friend we "happened" to meet at a rest stop in Osceola, Iowa. God's timing is perfect. Gus is at peace. And still seems to be right here with me....

Gus's body is at Magner Mahony Funeral Home right now, and we hope to have a memorial service this weekend sometime, and I hope it can be at our church, First Christian, on Battles Rd.

I left messages on Ernie Sloane's and Cliff Rush's answering machines, but can't do more right now. I don't know who ought to have Gus registered (is that the word?) as a Silent Key, but I'd sure appreciate someone's taking that responsibility for me.

October Meeting of Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club
October 17 - Emergency Services Night: Hospital Disaster Support
Communications System
Speaker - April Moell, WA6OPS
Meeting Starts - 7:30 PM
Location: Goleta Union Schools Admin. Board Room
401 N. Fairview Ave., Goleta
The Hospital Disaster Support Communications System of Orange County has
been in existance for 23 years and has responded to 75 emergencies in
support of 35 hospitals. Lots has been learned along the way regarding
activation procedures, hospital interface, and training etc. This
presentation will offer case studies of several emergencies (e.g.
Placentia train collison; Laguna Fire) to which HDSCS has responded and
highlight how the ARES structure, activation procedures and specialized
training led to accomplishing the mission of backing up communications
critical to patient care.
With experience both as an Amateur Radio operator and hospital employee,
April Moell found it natural to combine the two in HDSCS. She passed her
first ham operator test in 1976 and now holds an Advanced Class license.
As a Registered Occupational Therapist, April served for 17 years as
Director of Occupational and Recreational Therapies at St. Jude Medical
Center in Fullerton, CA. While there, she originated HDSCS. She also
founded the Rehab Radio program, which used Amateur Radio communications
as a therapy tool with patients recovering from stroke, head injury, and
spinal cord injury. In addition, she initiated the North Pole Network,
which brings joy to hospital patients of all ages at Christmas time.
If you are planning on attending dinner with the speaker, please let
Marvin KE6HTS (marvin(a)rain.org) know so we can make reservations. The
dinner will be held at Cody's Restaurant at 5:30pm. Cody's is located in
the shopping center at the corner of Hollister Ave and Turnpike Rd.
