- Management of the Amateur Radio Emergency Communications
Function
-
 --
With hundreds of radio amateurs completing EMCOMM courses via the
ARRL and elsewhere, there is a great deal available in terms of the “how
to” of emergency communications. What has been lacking until now
is a book designed for the managers and coordinators of Amateur Radio
emergency communications activities.
Jerry Boyd, KW7J, author of two previous EMCOMM books (both published
by Worldradio) and dozens of magazine articles on the subject, has
authored “Management of the Amateur Radio Emergency Communications
Function.” This 48-page booklet discusses the specific management
responsibilities, which Emergency Coordinators and other EMCOMM managers
have. It provides very helpful information for such managers on how
to efficiently and effectively accomplish those tasks.
The author draws on his 34 years as a public safety professional
in law enforcement, fire, EMS, and Search & Rescue functions
as well as 44 years as a licensed Amateur Radio operator in offering
tips for EMCOMM managers. His 15 years as a Police Chief and two
years as Chief of a Rural Fire District provide a realistic and very
applicable management perspective. 48 pages. © 2003, Published
by World Radio Books. -- $8.00 Order
