Junior Radio Ham
Leads Local Group
Franklin H. Perry, junior in
dustrial technology major from
Bryan, has been selected to lead
an organization of Brazos Coun
ty amateur radio operators pre
pared to furnish emergency com
munications in time of disasters,
it was announced today by Com
munications Manager George Hart
of the American Radio Relay
League, U. S. and Canadian as
sociation of radio amateurs.
Perry’s assignment, which car
ries the title of Emergency Coor
dinator of the Amateur R^dio
Emergency Corps, is to band to
gether members of the amateur
radio service in the community
to perfect arrangements for emer
gency radio communication by
hams in the event of natural dis
asters or other emergencies. In
addition to use of fixed radio
station equipment working from
commercial power, amateur sta
tions use self-powered radio
transmitting and receiving equip
ment as needed and can often de
ploy portable or mobile units to
accommodate a particular emer
gency requirement.
Perry, as ARRL Emergency
Coordinator, will call local meet
ings of amateurs, establish com
mon operating procedures, and
arrange regular drill periods when
the hams’ personal stations may
be mobilized under simulated
emergency conditions. His duties
also include liaison planning with
relief and public welfare agencies,
as suggested in working under
standings the ARRL Amateur
Radio Emergency Corps has with
the Red Cross, Civil Defense, and
other agencies. Liaison will be es
tablished also with local protec
tive services, such as fire and
police departments.
In announcing the apointment.
Hart pointed out that radio ama
teurs have traditionally had the
responsibility of being in con
stant readiness to offer assist
ance in time of need with ham-
acquired skill, emergency-powered
transmitters and a wealth of com
munity spirit. “When sleet storms
disrupt telephone and telegraph
sei-vice, or floods isolate whole
communities,” the League’s Com
munications Manager said, “it is
amateur radio that comes to the
rescue with operators and self-
powered equipment, often as the
sole agency able to transmit mes
sages calling on the outside world
for aid for the stricken communi
ty.”
“To be prepared for this func
tion requires not only a highly
organized program of prepared
ness locally.” Hart continued, “but
hams outside the disaster area
must be prepared to act as outlets
and relay points for emergency
traffic. Planning and organization
are necesary in either eventuality
and that is the job Franklin Perry
is doing for this area.”
