TravisCountyARES

This group is a county level organizational unit of the Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES), a part of the ARRL. Our group is sponsored by the Austin Amateur Radio Club. We consist of licensed amateurs who have voluntarily registered their qualifications and equipment for communications duty in the public service when disaster strikes. The group is headquarted in Austin, Travis County, Texas. Every licensed amateur in the local area, regardless of membership in ARRL or any other local or national organization, is eligible for membership in ARES. We have monthly meetings, training, activations as well as weekly voice and data nets to keep up our skills.
