Pandemic Vaccine Delivery Drill


While this picture is not terribly clear....it tells a story. This APRS map image shows WB4FAY on I-65 heading north today. KE4DZU was also on the same highway heading north in N1LF's vehicle to Birmingham from Montgomery. They are three of a bunch of Alabama hams who participated in the first Department of Homeland Security, State of Alabama EMA Pandemic Vaccine Delivery Drill. Next time you see them, be sure and ask them about it.
I'm proud of our local guys providing this service to the State of Alabama. In fact, the hams from ARRL District 7 http://n1yz.com/alabama%20arrl%20districts.jpg provided the majority of the APRS/HF/VHF/UHF support for this exercise. Be sure and thank them when you see them.
Rod, N1YZ
