ARRL "Science and Skill in Service" Report a Must Read
------------------------------------------------------
While directed at lawmakers at all levels to advocate for Amateur Radio, the
2015 ARRL publication Amateur Radio: Science and Skill in Service to Your
Community is also a good read for the ARES community: the 12-page report
provides a summary of major ARES and other groups' operations for incidents
and events throughout the regions of the country over the past couple of
years. A product of the League's regulatory and advocacy staff, the report
shows graphicallyhow Amateur Radio has benefited the United States through
public service, disaster response, and partnering with other served
agencies. The report will lend even the most grizzled veteran operator pride
in what we all do. Click here for the report - don't miss it!

MARS Exercise to Simulate a Coronal Mass Ejection; Amateurs Invited to
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Participate
-----------
Beginning the week of November 8, 2015, the Military Auxiliary Radio System
(MARS) will participate in a quarterly contingency HF exercise in support of
the Department of Defense. The exercise scenario will simulate a Coronal
Mass Ejection (CME) event and focus on actions that radio operators should
take prior to and following such an event. [Coronal mass ejections (or CMEs)
are huge bubbles of gas threaded with magnetic field lines that are ejected
from the Sun over the course of several hours. Coronal Mass Ejections
disrupt the flow of the solar wind and produce disturbances that strike the
Earth with sometimes catastrophic results. More on CMEs here. - source
NASA.] Training objectives for this exercise will include:

Understanding what a CME is and how much forecast lead time can be
expected prior to the CME.
What effects are associated with a CME and what precautions should radio
operators take prior to the CME to protect equipment.
Following the CME, operators will begin assessing the effects and begin
reporting this information.
Interoperability with Amateur Radio operators and groups.

Amateur Radio operators, ARES and RACES members are encouraged to
participate in this exercise. If interested in participating, click here to
register. -- Paul English, NETCOM Land Mobile Radio Manager, Army MARS

New Ohio ECs Learn from Veterans at ARES Leadership Conference
--------------------------------------------------------------
Twenty new members of the ARRL Ohio Section ARES leadership team spent a day
learning from senior leaders about their new responsibilities. The class was
conducted at the Franklin County Emergency Management office in Columbus.
Freshmen county Emergency Coordinators (EC) and Assistant ECs heard from
Ohio Section Manager Scott Yonally, N8SY, Section Emergency Coordinator Stan
Broadway, N8BHL, Northeast Ohio District 10 EC Eric Jessen, N8AUC, and
Dayton area District 3 EC Robert Rhoades, KC8WHK.

When a new EC is appointed, the appointee receives a manual from ARRL HQ
covering their new responsibilities in leading a county ARES program. "We
wanted to supplement the ARRL training materials with a conversational
learning environment where we could put 'real life' into their understanding
of their leadership tasks," said SEC Broadway. Speakers at the day-long
session brought considerable credentials, experience and expertise to the
podium. Rhoades has an extensive background in the fire service and Fire
Marshall's office, the Ohio Health Department and is an instructor at the
national training centers in Emmitsburg, Maryland. Jessen drew from a large
city history of events and interaction with major served agencies. Section
Manager Yonally and SEC Broadway share extensive backgrounds in emergency
services and planning.

Broadway launched the day session with an overview of ARES from its
historical roots to its current organization in Ohio. The main concept for
session attendees to learn is that the EC is the lead representative of ARES
in his county; knowing his jurisdiction and being able to establish and
maintain relationships with local partner agencies are missions-critical.
The District ECs and SEC are appointed to support the EC, reinforcing the
EC's ability to serve the agencies and the public.The session also covered
the importance of specific job duties including filing monthly reports.

Section Manager Yonally had just returned from a week of training at ARRL
Headquarters in Newington, Connecticut, where he was presented with training
and information on Field Organization and ARES policies and procedures. He
related this knowledge and lessons he has learned through personal
experience to the group.

SEC Broadway discussed how to establish and maintain a solid working
relationship with the EMA Director, and other served agency leaders. Jessen
advised "Never write a check they can't cash," which resonated with the
group. Other discussion ranged from the importance of presenting a
professional image and what it takes to be accepted into the inner circle of
leaders at the EMA office.

Rhodes brought to the session discussion table his wealth of experience in
building exercises, describing the different types of exercises, and what
goes into creating a proper Master Scenario Events List (MESL). [An MSEL
documents the timetable of events and injects (eg, test events and messages)
that guide exercise progress. It links simulation to action promoting the
best exercise experience for players, and lists prompts for players to
execute a policy or procedure to be tested. An MSEL lists scenario times,
the exercise scenario and summary, expected responses by players for
injects, and has a notes section for controllers and evaluators to compare
exercise actual versus planned outcomes. - ed.]

Broadway discussed emergency planning with the attendees, outlining the Ohio
Section Emergency Response Plan (OSERP) and how it can be adapted to
specific county situations and needs. ECs were advised to talk with their
EMA Directors about what Broadway calls the "Ten Worst Headaches" list - an
outline of potential problems with the ARES/EMA relationship and possible
solutions. The goal is a good working relationship, leading to the overall
integration of ARES as a valid emergency resource.

One of the top concerns for many county ARES programs is retention, keeping
volunteers interested and active. Towards this goal, Broadway suggested
holding training sessions conducted by instructors/officials from county
served agencies covering topics such as light SAR (search and rescue), First
Aid/CPR, anti-terrorism, damage assessment, Red Cross shelter operations,
the CERT program, and evolving data modes.

Attendees received the session enthusiastically, with their post-session
evaluation form comments affirming their interest in putting lessons learned
into practice back in their home county ARES programs. - Stan Broadway,
N8BHL, Ohio Section Emergency Coordinator

FEMA's Lessons Learned Information Sharing (LLIS) Program
---------------------------------------------------------
The Lessons Learned Information Sharing (LLIS) program is part of FEMA's
National Preparedness Assessment Division (NPAD). The LLIS program supports
its mission by developing and disseminating lessons learned, innovative
practices, and other related content for improvement throughout the whole
community; analyzing emergency management capabilities in order to identify
common areas of strengths or improvements; and developing policy and
doctrine. For example, there is a report on an LLIS page under the heading
"Innovative Practices," titled "Amateur Radio Volunteers Protect Community
Water Supply." The report, dated October 7, 2014, presented how Federal
preparedness grants support Colorado's structured partnership with ARES,
"which assists in establishing and maintaining emergency communications
during disasters."

From the report: "In 2013, Colorado experienced historic rainfall and
flooding . . . as part of the response effort, 150 ARES volunteers in
Colorado's Northeast Region deployed to assist. When floodwater threatened
the electronic controls of a wastewater facility serving a community of
80,000 people, ARES established a microwave network using two grant-funded
repeaters and took remote control of the plant. ARES maintained control of
the facility for four months -- preventing any wastewater from spilling into
the floodwater."

More discussion follows in the report. There are many parts of FEMA's LLIS
resources that would be of interest to us as radio amateurs and ARES
members. Start by browsing here.

Central Florida ARES Group Supports Large Bicycle Festival
----------------------------------------------------------
The Lake Amateur Radio Association activated ARES of Lake County (Florida)
in support of the 41st Annual Mount Dora Bicycle Festival in Mount Dora,
Florida from October 9 -11, 2015. Operators provided radio communications
from each rest area as well as from mobile radio units to patrol the various
bicycle routes.

Lake County has 1400 named lakes and is considered Florida's hill country.
Some hills offer a challenge for even the most experienced bicycle riders.
This year 1325 cyclists signed up to ride in the festival.

Radio equipped vehicles operated by radio amateurs transported a total of 30
bicycle riders and their bicycles back to the starting area over the three
day event, for mechanical break downs and medical issues. Five medical
emergencies were managed: One rider required evacuation to the hospital with
a broken collar bone. Sixteen situations in total required the intervention
of the mobile radio vehicles.

The Lake County ARES group used a repeater to run the net, keeping track of
rest area locations and mobile radio units. NCS operators used the call sign
of N4FLA and assigned all field operators tactical signs.

Lake County ARES and LARA have been providing on course radio communications
for the event for almost 25 years. This year, 25 Amateur Radio operators
volunteered their time and equipment to ensure the public safety and garner
experience for emergency/disaster response. Click here for more information
on LARA and Lake County ARES. -- Ted Luebbers, K1AYZ, Lake County (Florida)
ARES Public Information Officer [Luebbers was named the recipient of the
2012 ARRL Philip J. McGan Silver Antenna Award, recognized by the ARRL Board
for his "outstanding volunteer public relations success on behalf of Amateur
Radio at the local and regional levels." -- ed.]

Hail, Fire, Smoke, Snow Challenge Communicators Supporting Yellowstone Bike
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tour
----
On August 22, 2015, 350 bicyclists and more than 200 support crew covered a
500-mile, 7-day bike tour of Yellowstone National Park. A hail storm on day
two blanketed base camp, and a snowstorm on day 3 stranded 55 bikes at the
11,000 foot level. Adding to these challenges were grizzly bears, wild land
fire and smoke, and ice-covered tents. A communications collapse during a
24-hour period mid-week resulting in no cellphone coverage, no Internet
access, and no landline phone coverage, provided another insult.

This was the third year of the Cycle Greater Yellowstone Bike Tourevent,
with radio amateurs supporting it for all three years. The ride features a
different area around Yellowstone National Park (YNP) each year - exposing
riders to new views of the YNP ecosystem. This year's event brought several
"firsts" to the local Amateur Radio community. It was the first time that
amateurs from four different radio clubs (separated by hundreds of miles)
have worked together. The event is the largest that many of the operators
have ever worked. It was the first time operators had to cover forest
service and wilderness areas with no cellphone towers, no repeaters, nor
civilization/infrastructure. It was also the first time that the current
ride organizers worked with Amateur Radio operators.

The week was physically and mentally exhausting with no down-time for the 34
amateurs. Riders were on the road each day from 7:00 AM until 5:00 PM, but
the operators started earlier and didn't stop working until after 10:00 each
night. For days three and four, when the riders were in the wilderness
areas, Amateur Radio was the only communications service for getting
messages in and out of camps, adding stress to operators. Messages were
critically important: health/welfare, weather updates on incoming storms,
and queries to local hospitals on conditions of injured riders. Operators
evacuated at least one rider per day for hypothermia, dehydration, heart and
lung issues, and accidents with cattle guards and other cyclists.

Hams were assigned in all SAG (Support and Gear) vans, as shadows to two
Course Directors and Course Monitors, and at Rest Stops, Base Camp, and
Sweep vehicles.

Highlights

Days One and Two were shorter, on level ground, providing a good "shakedown
cruise" for the challenges to come. The easier starting days allowed the
riders and support personnel time for acclimatization to the higher altitudes.

Day Three featured the 31-mile climb to 10,947' Beartooth Pass that divides
Montana from Wyoming. Even leaving camp an hour earlier than normal to beat
an incoming snowstorm, 55 cold riders had to be evacuated from the mountain.
The hams drove a truck to the summit to retrieve the 55 bikes left in the
snow. The next morning, all bikes, tents and vehicles wore a thick layer of
ice.That night, crew took 2-hour shifts for bear patrol around the perimeter
of the cold campground, with each crew member equipped with bear spray and a
whistle to summon help -- troublesome bears were present.

Day Four saw riders and operators up and over another pass to Cody, Wyoming,
where temperatures were much warmer, but with stronger headwinds. Day Six
had more seasonal temperatures, but Day Seven found the riders facing a
brutal headwind with colder temps, resulting in more than 100 riders
choosing to wait for a bus to transport them to the finish line.

Of the riders that started, more than half had to be sagged-off the course.
The last few determined riders did reach the finish line in Red Lodge,
Montana.

Cold Stats

Ham operators involved - 34. Total time invested by radio amateurs -- 1600
hours. Radios used -- 46 handhelds, 35 mobiles, 12 HF radios, 7 APRS
trackers, two mobile digipeaters, 14 FRS radios, and 15 radios on 153.905
MHz for direct communication with medical services. Radios were used by the
hams as "High Point Relays" to cover each day's 70-100 mile course. Ten
fixed VHF/UHF repeaters were also employed.

Most tactical communications between Ride Vehicles on the course were
handled on VHF and UHF simplex car-to-car (with simplex cross-band repeaters
set up each day), with fixed mountaintop repeaters used for more distance
needs. A team of home-based net control stations monitored communications
14-16 hours each day on VHF repeaters and HF radios as listening posts to
provide assistance and back-up communications if needed. More info here. --

Putting Contesting to Work for Your Public Service Team
-------------------------------------------------------
Operating skill is not something that can be tested on a license exam or
learned from a book. Emergency managers know that practice - lots of it - is
required for operators to be sharp when they are really needed. Repeating
drill after drill can get old but there are other enjoyable ways to give
your equipment a good shakedown and build on-the-air know-how. Just as
sports keep you physically fit, "radiosport" or contesting can serve as a
training ground while having fun at the same time.

First, you don't need a huge, multi-tower station to participate. A comm
trailer or EOC probably has everything you need for success, particularly if
you choose the right contest. You can start simply with any of a number of
regional FM simplex contests that encourage the use of mobile and handheld
FM radios for an afternoon or evening. Just search the Internet for "FM
simplex contest" to find several. For example, in the St Louis area, the St
Louis and Suburban Radio Clubsponsors an occasional "ZIP code contest" in
which hams operate from home or a car and count the different ZIP codes as
multipliers. Operation takes place on the usual simplex FM channels from
147.42 MHz to 147.56 MHz for four hours on a weekend evening.This is a great
way to learn about squelch management, copying weak signals, using
phonetics, and the effectiveness of good locations and antennas! No contest
in your area? Work with the local clubs to start one.

Instead of jumping into a big DX contest, try the domestic contests such as
the upcoming November Sweepstakes or December's 10 Meter Contest. The low
dipole you use for regional communications will work lots of stations - more
than you might imagine. A multiband vertical will work great on 10 meters or
put up a temporary dipole for the weekend. Farther in the future, check out
the North American QSO Parties with their easy name-and-state exchange and
low-power signals. Look up your own state's QSO party and activate your
county or parish for hours of fun with callers chasing YOU for a change. If
your club has VHF SSB gear, there are regular VHF contests. If your team
uses digital modes to exchange text and files, try a digital mode contest
with RTTY and PSK keyboard-to-keyboard operating.

Trying to pack an entire team into the shack can be counterproductive. A
couple of people have a lot of fun while the rest watch and get bored. If
you have enough interest, divide your group into two- or three-person teams
that operate in shifts with an experienced operator to mentor and guide (and
log). Better yet, put the teams at different stations and let them go
head-to-head in a short challenge. No one says you have to operate the
entire contest, either. Pick times that work - maybe about as long as your
regular drills - and get together afterward for the usual "hot wash" or
maybe just a little story-telling session over pizza.

A "contest Elmer" can help those new to contesting with scripts guiding the
operators through a QSO. Start each team of operators with a period of
listening so they have some time to get up to speed. Show them how to tune
in an SSB signal, operate the necessary receiver controls, and the
abbreviated style of calling and answering. Using paper log sheets can work
at first but you'll find that simple logging software like that available
from N3FJP is easy and intuitive to learn. Let one operator talk and one
operator log - then swap.

Once your team gets up to speed, reinforce the reasons why we have contests
in the first place: accurate, effective operating. Place a special emphasis
on getting call signs and exchanges 100% correct. Making a lot of contacts
is good but not at the expense of errors. Help operators make good use of
primary radio controls to increase clarity on receive and transmit: filters,
RF gain, AGC, RIT/XIT, and others can make a surprising improvement in
copying ability. Watch for teachable moments such as unusual and changing
propagation, small pileups of callers, confusing letters, and clean vs
distorted signal audio.

The hours will fly by and when it's over, you'll have some operators anxious
to try again. It's a good way to introduce non-hams to Amateur Radio, too.
Why not invite a CERT or SKYWARN volunteer to sit in and make a contact?
Don't forget to submit a log - no matter how small - and watch for your
team's call sign in the final results. You might even get lucky and win a
certificate. Could a Worked All States award be in your team's future?

Regardless of how many contacts you make, when interspersed with your
regular drills and exercises contesting offers a great change of pace while
advancing everyone's abilities at little or no cost. See you in the pileups!

What You Are Not
----------------
[The following is excerpted from the International Amateur Radio Union
(IARU) publication IARU Emergency Telecommunications Guide. (2015) A PDF
file of the document can be found here. While this guide was developed
primarily to provide IARU member-societies around the globe with materials
suitable for training their members to provide radio communications support
in emergency/disaster events, it also contains principles and concepts that
are universal to all Amateur Radio and ARES operators who are learning the
culture of providing such support via Amateur Radio. I thought that the
following excerpt was particularly helpful in understanding our role as ARES
members. - ed.]

As important as what you are, is what you are not. There are limits to your
responsibilities as an emergency communicator, and it is important to know
where to draw the line.

You are not a "first responder." Except in rare cases of chance, you will
seldom be first on the scene. You do not need flashing lights and sirens,
gold badges, or fancy uniforms.

You have no authority. In most cases, you cannot make decisions for others,
or make demands on the agency you serve or any other agency. The only
decisions you can make are whether to participate or not, and those
affecting your own health and safety.

You are not in charge. You are there to temporarily fulfill the needs of an
agency whose communication system is unable to completely do its job. They
tell you what they need, and you do your best to comply.

ARES Go-Kit Exhibition and Competition Held in South Carolina
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Third Annual Aiken (South Carolina) ARES Go-Kit Exhibition and Contest
was held this past weekend on Saturday, October 17, 2015, at the Aiken
County Administration Complex. Open to all radio amateurs, the demonstration
and displays were conducted from 9:30 AM until noon. Amateurs without
go-kits were encouraged to attend to gain ideas for developing a go-kit for
themselves. Others with go-kits were able to glean ideas for enhancing their
kits.

Points were awarded when the submitted go-kits were made to work in
field-like conditions at the exhibit. Also, the more bands and modes shown
operational, the more points awarded. All entries in the contest were to be
judged by a representative from the Aiken County Emergency Management
office, and the Aiken County ARES Emergency Coordinator.

The judges expected an entry to have at least an emergency power source, a
transceiver with a mic, an antenna system, and basic personal safety and
comfort items. Contestants had three minutes to present and talk about their
go-kit entry. The grand prize was a new hand-held transceiver. - from the
ARRL South Carolina section website

Winlink Team Tests Innovations in Tennessee EMA/AUXCOMM Exercise
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) held their Fall AUXCOMM
exercise October 1-3. A major regional exercise held semi-annually, it
involves joint participation by emergency communication professionals and
AUXCOMM volunteers. It is a model of interoperability between state, county
and National Guard professionals with Amateur Radio volunteers. Winlink, an
Amateur Radio-based global email system that can be used when the Internet
is down, was used heavily during the exercise both for communicating with
external sites and for managing message flow at the incident command post.
[AuxComm is comprised of operators trained under the NIMS/ICS model of
emergency management for emergency communications support].

Communication with External Sites

Exercise players responded to a simulated incident, coordinating response
between the central incident command post located at the Tennessee Fire
Academy in Bell Buckle, and multiple sites in east and west Tennessee. Each
site connected to a Winlink Radio Message Server (RMS) within propagation
range and deposited messages on a Common Message Server (CMS), which is the
backbone of the Winlink store-and-forward system. This approach allowed each
site to select an RMS that was easiest for them to connect to rather than
requiring a direct connection to the central site. By using the
store-and-forward capability, messages could be exchanged between sites
without requiring simultaneous operating times. Winlink operating with
SHARES callsigns on SHARES radio frequencies was used for communication with
the external sites.

SHARES is a federal communication organization using HF radio for
communication between federal agencies, state and county agencies, National
Guard units and NGOs such as American Red Cross and medical centers. It uses
federal radio frequencies that are outside the ham bands.

Winlink In the Central Incident Command Post

Winlink was used extensively within the central incident command post to
manage message flow, with messages transferred over a MESH network, and a
Winlink Network Post Office Server, the heart of the system, used rather
than the RMS and CMS employed for the external communication sites. See
figure for how the system worked.Stations, which were scattered around the
campus, had connectivity with the central server through the MESH network.

RADO Operation

Four radio operator (RADO) stations operated simultaneously, handling: (1)
SHARES Winlink traffic; (2) SHARES voice traffic; (3) ham Winlink traffic;
and (4) ham voice traffic. Each RADO station had a computer running RMS
Express with a connection to the MESH network, and had an address book
contact with actual call sign being used named "ICC" (Incident Communication
Coordinator). Messages addressed to ICC were directed to the network post
office and messages received from external stations by the Winlink RADOs
were forwarded to ICC without change. Messages received by the voice RADOs
were transcribed into Winlink messages and sent to ICC. RMS Express'
"background tasks" routed messages automatically.

Incident Communication Coordinator Operation

The ICC is the person responsible for processing incoming reports and
requests, dispatching them for action or generating replies himself when
appropriate. RMS Express used by the ICC was configured to poll the post
office server in the "background" once a minute to check for pending
messages. RMS Express also made it easy for the ICC to simply reply to a
message.

Some - but not all - messages were appropriate to be posted on the TEMA
WebEOC system. WebEOC is a system for event tracking and status reporting
that's widely used by larger EMAs. When the ICC identified a message that
needed to be posted, the message was forwarded to a contact entry with call
sign named WEBEOC. The WebEOC logger ran RMS Express configured to poll the
network post
office every minute to check for incoming messages.

Summary and Conclusion

Winlink was used extensively during the exercise both for external and
internal communication. Several new Winlink features were used and tested
heavily: (1) network post office server; (2) background tasks; and (3)
contact entries designating post office servers. All features worked well
with no reported problems.

This exercise demonstrated the usefulness of Winlink operating over a MESH
network with a network post office to facilitate message flow within an
incident command post. The speed and reliability far exceeded what has been
previously experienced using manual message transcription and hand delivery.
It is recommended that future exercise continue to use this system.
