ARRL ARES Task Book
The ARRL ARES Task Book has replaced the TN ARES Task Book (which replaced the METERS Task Book) as the guiding document for ARES training. In addition to the link in this announcement, there's a link to that document on our Training/Library page. Please begin working to transfer your completed tasks from the old book into the new one. (it was recommended that we staple the pages of our TN or METERS task books that have been signed off, with the new one, so we won't need to have the same requirements signed twice, as long as the requirement in the ARRL ARES book is the same). |
TEMA classes availability
As per CDC and Knox County Health Dept recommendations, we are following the "Stay in Place" guidelines. Therefore, we will update this website with current classes as soon as the "All Clear" is given. Please check with the website first, to see if they are even available right now. There are TEMA ICS classes of all types available all the time, so for those who are working on Task Books, the link for the website is training-calendar.html, and if you don't mind driving, many are near Nashville or east of Nashville, so are within reach if we don't have a recent class locally. |
Monthly 2021 Meetings
Board Meeting The Feb METERS Board meeting will be held Tuesday, Feb 16 at 6:30 PM as a Zoom meeting. Board members will be notified. Members
are welcome to attend a board meeting, so if you would like the contact
information to attend, please email Cathi at K4TMW@metersinc.org by Monday night Feb 15.
General Membership Meeting As per CDC and Knox County Health Dept recommendations, we are following the "Stay in Place" guidelines, and are not having face to face meetings at this time. As soon as the "All Clear" is given, we will have information on the next available General Meeting in person. This is a great time to practice with your radios, contact hams in other places, take online ICS/ARRL courses, and work on equipment! We should be prepared! We ARE however, having meetings by Zoom conferencing, so if you would like to have an invitation to the meeting and are not a METERS member yet, please email Cathi at K4TMW@metersinc.org and she will send one right to you. They are being held at 7 pm on the fourth Tuesday of the month. This current meeting is being held on Feb 18 2021, because we have a special presenter, Mr. Bob Heil, and it is a joint meeting with METERS and RACK(Radio Amateur Club of Knoxville).
As soon as the College is open for meetings again, we will let you know. They are looking forward to having us again!
A map is available here for TCAT-K.
