To support and facilitate emergency, disaster and public service related communication systems and services provided by Amateur Radio Operators through the Amateur Radio Emergency Service and the Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service to government agencies, the general public and private disaster relief organizations.
This means EC Resources was formed to provide equipment and systems which can be used by ARES and RACES organizations and members to provide assistance to public and private disaster relief organizations. Examples of these organizations are local County Emergency Management, the Red Cross and the National Weather Service. Equipment and systems provided at this time include:
A two-meter VHF repeater system serving Outagamie County and the Fox Cities
A portable 70-centimeter UHF repeater for emergency use
A Mobile Communications Center (MCC) for emergency and other remote operations
A two-meter VHF repeater system serving Vilas County
EC Resources, Ltd. is considering a project to implement a D-Star digital network (1.2Ghz) in the Fox Cities. This project would necessitate a grant to install the necessary infrastructure. Stay tuned for updates.
Many companies have donation and grant programs in which they will make monetary donations to the organization of an employee's choice. Some require the organization make a request directly to them. In either case, let us know and we will work with you in securing the donation or grant.

Of course, private donations of money and/or equipment are always welcome. All donations (monetary or equipment) are tax deductible to the full extent of the law.
