Lee Co. ARES Monthly Meeting, March 16, 2025
Lee County ARES held their first Zoom monthly meeting in March, as many were out of town. It was a great meeting and Zoom performed well. We discussed donations and grants, new upcoming safety procedures at the Lee Co. Sheriff’s Office, Red Poppy and MS150 races coming up at the end of April. We decided to request NWS SKYWARN basic and advance classes in Lee County. In view of a future October ARES district-wide exercise we are considering asking District 7 ARES E.C. to run possible monthly district voice and digital nets. We also talked about adding repeaters within the County, solving the RF problem of end-fed HF antennas at the Sheriff’s Office by adding a second antenna, and considered other technical projects.
