#WEST GULF COAST STX ARES TASKBOOK HOW TO#
As soon as you register, your local EC will look over your application and approve you as a member:ĭuring this past year the number of reported traffic nets have increased in number, and as such, we as the South Texas Section have been able to report back to ARRL HQ’s a significantly higher number of Amateur Radio operators who are learning how to send and receive traffic. If you would like to join ARES in your local county, please sign up at the ARRL STX Depot site at the link below.
Every EC needs to be submitting a report each month: If you are not submitting your monthly reports or have nothing to report then simply put you have nothing to report when submitting your report. If you are an EC and submitting your monthly reports, Thank you. If you are interested in becoming an EC, please look over the requirements at the link below to decide if it is for you. We still have a few openings for EC’s throughout the section, so if you are interested check out the map on our ARRL STX Depot website to see what is available: There have been several new EC’s appointed and a few DEC’s as well this year. I am looking forward to visiting as many as I can squeeze in this year. As it has been a little while since my last newsletter to the South Texas Section there have been a few changes, as well as several Hamfests and Tailgate events created for our section.
