Terry Stader, KA8SCP writes on mras_general list:
There will be a multi-agency, multi-community exercise involving Lowell, Dracut and Billerica on Friday, 9/23 and Saturday, 9/24. Amateur Radio support has been requested for this drill.
The major portion of the exercise will be conducted during the day time on Friday with additional events occurring on Saturday.
Here is an opportunity for Amateur Radio to team up with police, fire, EMS, ambulance companies, hospitals as well as our common support roles working with the American Red Cross and community emergency management agencies.
If you would like to part of this event, please let me know ASAP. Our role will depend entirely on how many of us are available.
