This is NOT a simple,\u00a0typical “field day”operation. This\u00a0IS a serious\u00a0over-night\u00a0“real day – real deal” learning session.<\/p>\nThis is NOT a simple,\u00a0typical “field day”operation. This\u00a0IS a serious\u00a0over-night\u00a0“real day – real deal” learning session.<\/p>\n
A much shortened version of my full 3 day Jump Team Boot Camp\u00a0will be offered\u00a0ONLY IF<\/span>\u00a0there are enough interested hams in this area.<\/p>\n Note: My full 3-day boot-camp is still being\u00a0held in late October but it’s been requested that I also hold a simpler one.<\/strong> We will go through\u00a0the same basic\u00a0steps needed to set up and run a\u00a0complete emergency communications complex at a location where nothing would be standing.<\/p>\n \u00a0This includes the all important site\u00a0survey\u00a0before structures are erected, sheltering and how to properly put them up, station operating posts, antenna building and erection, power generation, food support\/dining areas, message handling, troubleshooting your station, propagation, etc. All participants will be exposed to every phase so they will be able to “do it all” from scratch\u00a0in case of an emergency.<\/p>\n I am open\u00a0to any\u00a0local\u00a0club who might wish to co-sponsor this event. All equipment and food\u00a0will be\u00a0included at no cost to the attendees who need only bring personal items and their own sleeping bag.\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n A July date\u00a0will be determined (a Saturday\u00a0late morning\u00a0until Sunday about\u00a0noon) as best to accommodate as many\u00a0attendees as possible\u00a0and the location will be at a local campground which will be less foreboding than the full 3-day session “in hell”.<\/p>\n Learn how to prepare the right way so you’ll be ready if you need to deploy for several days\u00a0to a location other than\u00a0at some simple\u00a0pre-determined shelter.<\/p>\n Be ready and trained\u00a0to go where most cannot.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
