Native Plants and Prairies Day, Bath House Cultural Center, May 6, 2023

The White Rock Lake Amateur Radio Club, WA5WRL, has been requested to support the radio communications for the Native Plants and Prairies Day held at the Bath House Cultural Center on May 6, 2023. We supported this event last year as well.

HOURS OF SUPPORT: 8:00AM to 4:00PM

  • 1st Shift: 8:00AM to 12:00 noon
  • 2nd Shift: 12:00 noon to 4:00PM

Volunteers can cover both shifts if they desire.

NET OPERATIONS: All radio net operations will be by VHF simplex, 147.52 MHZ. Since all support will be within 1/2 mile of the Bath House, 5 watt HTs are more than adequate for portable operations. An Event Operations Center (EOC) will be established in front of the Bath House building and will use a 10 watt radio.

RADIO POSITIONS:

  • Event Operations Center (EOC) Net Controller (minimum one per shift)
  • Shadow Comms (three requested per shift)
  • Rovers (three requested per shift)

Volunteers can pick multiple positions if they desire (only one will be assigned at a time).

The table below shows the available positions and the current volunteers. We still need to have volunteers for the cells in the table that are highlighted in yellow.

To volunteer, check out the website: https://ntxnppd.org/radio
