List any relevant affiliations including clubs, auxiliary communication services, etc. This section is optional.
IMPORTANT
Please write the full club name, not just the abbreviation; e.g. write Montgomery County Auxiliary Communication Service, not MCACS.
 
 
Select this only if you have equipment that is relevant to your volunteering mission, otherwise you can disregard.

EQUIPMENT INFO

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ:
This section is optional.

Only list equipment that you believe is relevant to volunteering as you volunteer. If you mostly volunteer as a portable operator, no need to list your shack or base equipment. If you mostly volunteer mobile, then list what you have that is mobile. If you mostly volunteer from your base station then, yes, you can include base equipment.
What portable, mobile or base transceivers do you have that are relevant to your volunteering mission. Include, if relevant, what power you have to go with your transceiver(s).
If relevant, include support structures such as masts or towers. You can also include relevant tuners or measuring equipment.
Laptops and any amateur radio related software that can be useful. For example, if it's loaded and ready with winlink, logging software, or fldigi, etc.
Headsets, speakers, noise reduction, but also CW keys
If you have an HF or VHF/UHF go-kit that is ready to deploy, you can include a brief description of it here. A good example is a complete AREDN setup, or a POTA type box.
Tents, shelters, cots, but also safety vests, hard hats, or other safety related equipment that you might need if, for example, operating outdoors or setting up an antenna tower, etc.
Any equipment that does not fall into a category above, for instance a generator or measuring equipment.
