Next in-person UARC Meeting at the U Brett Davis, KJ7Y about the Utah Offroad Recovery Team
The Utah Offroad Recovery Team (UORRT) was formed to provide recovery services for off road enthusiests. Members of the team are volunteers who provide services on their own time at their own expense. In addition to an offload vehicle with suitable recovery equipment, First-aid and FEMA ICS knowlege, all members of the team must hold at least a Technician level Amateur Radio license. UORRT will speak to us about offload recovery and the role Amateur Radio plays in their offroad activities.
