For residents of Florida's coastal counties, the yearly start of Hurricane Season serves as a reminder to test our generators, clean out our gutters and swales, and stock up on fuel and non-perishable foods. But as Hams, we have the additional charge of making sure we are equipped and prepared to communicate under emergency conditions. More Info
