After the hands on class we should put together some regular (or not so regular ) workshops/classes with local repeater groups and/or speakers.
I'd like to get someone from the Keller Peak Repeater Association to come and give us a talk on the different things that go on with their repeater. I think it would be beneficial for all of us to learn more about their Echolink System, Rescue Net, SATERN net, SKYWARN, etc.
Here's a link to their website:

Another similar workshop/class that is in preliminary talking stage:
Phill Dupree (SBCounty ECS weather support coordinator) has spoke to me a few times about putting on a SKYWARN workshop in Wrightwood this summer. He would coordinate with the National Weather Service to have a rep come and talk about the NWS SKYWARN system.
