Things To Do
Below is a list of thing that you can do to achieve your goal this month.
Choose at least one, and complete it.
-
Have flashlights ready in an easily accessible place and check batteries in flashlights and radios.
-
Acquire and learn how to safely use a portable generator.
-
Create a power outage plan – decide what you can do before, during and after a power outage to minimize the effect on your household.
We count on electricity for heat, food, and medical needs. Many gas appliances even need electricity to run. A power outage is an emergency that often follows another emergency—like a hurricane, tornado, or winter storm. That makes it even more important to be prepared in advance

By Stan Horzepa, WA1LOU
Contributing Editor Here are some online tools to help you answer that question. As a fan of VHF and UHF operating, I often seek out mountaintop locations so I can work some DX, unimpeded by manmade objects and Mother Nature’s higher hills. And while I appreciate the view, I often wonder how far away the horizon is. I discovered a great article about this topic years ago and...
