I'm involved in the local ARES group (Jefferson County) in southeast Texas and also a state RACES member. I'm also fortunate to get time away from work to attend yearly hurricane and interoperability drills. I also check in regularly to the Texas Traffic Net 3.873 and take all the traffic for my area to help me gain confidence and proficiency on message handling. I have completed ARRL Emcomm Level I, Level II also FEMA IS-100 & 200. I've still got more courses to take but there's not one that can teach practical experience witch I lack so for now I'll have to stick with preparedness and practice.
