Family Radio Services Training

Are you an ex-HAM or C.B. or Family radio services operator? Were you attracted to using radio communications like walkie talkies or two cups and a string when growing up?

Those who would like to become a spontaneous Family Radio Services communications volunteer during an emergency in Leisure World, or who just want to brush up for family contact, are invited to attend a training provided by Ms. Marty Williams.

The training is scheduled for Tuesday July 11, from 10-11 a.m. in the Clubhouse 3 Learning Center. One dozen radios will be available for students to use during this training. This training will cover: basic functions for radio usage, Leisure World call-in communications protocol, battery care and maintenance, the do’s and don’ts of radio communications, and outdoor practice.

This event is first come, first served. A second training will be on Oct. 4, from 11 a.m.-noon in the same location.
