Radio KD8TTE. Technology, operations, and training to be an effective operator.

We focus on the hands-on: knowing the theory is nice but we're focused on actually making the stuff work, especially in emergencies. Applications are focused on amateur radio, also known as ham radio, but not exclusively so and may from time to time mention other radio services with whom amateur operators will operate as part of AUXCOMM teams or in emergency communications contexts.

We cover communication techniques including good voice procedure, use of Narrow Band Emergency Management Software (NBEMS), and Continuous Wave (CW) with Morse Code.

Your host is C. Matthew Curtin, KD8TTE. Trustee of Radio Relay International station W6RRI, Member of American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and the Royal Order of the Wouff Hong, and experienced SHARES and military operator. Past ARRL offices include Assistant Section Emergency Coordinator (ASEC), Franklin County OH Emergency Coordinator (EC), and NTS Net Manager.
