Показать описание
On an ARRL-hosted webinar October 25, 2016, US Air Force MARS Chief Dave Stapchuk, KD9DXM, discussed the history of the Military Auxiliary Radio System (MARS) program and membership requirements for Amateur Radio operators. He also highlighted the Joint MARS Phone Patch network, which provides daily support to US armed forces. The phone patch network facilitates not only morale/welfare phone patches but routinely handles mission-related radio calls and occasionally assists US air crews with in-flight emergency phone patches when air traffic control cannot be reached.
US Army MARS Program Manager Paul English, WD8DBY, discussed the quarterly US Department of Defense (DOD) contingency communication exercises, which promote interoperability between the Amateur Radio community and the DOD. English also discussed initiatives for promoting the use of 60 meters between Amateur Radio and the federal government as well as the types of information MARS operators requested from the Amateur Radio community during the DOD communications exercise (COMEX), October 30-November 1, 2016.
