Welcome to the Los Altos Hills Amateur Radio Club
We are just getting organized; this page is to describe what we want to accomplish, but feel free to suggest improvements!
The town of Los Altos Hills and the Los Altos Hills County Fire District have a robust program to respond to disasters. But the old home for amateur radio (the Emergency Communications Committee - ECC) was retired by the town.
This ham club is meant to be the replacement for the ECC for amateur radio operators.
Our current goals for the club are:
Be a social club to encourage participation and have fun
Mentor new hams (and old hams learning new things)
Find people to experiment with (e.g. LoRa, HaLo)
Maintain the repeater and ham radio equipment in town
Train ham radio operators so we are prepared for emergencies
Conduct drills to test our knowledge
We are just forming the club and working on our procedures and goals. We'd love to have you participate!
