LAFD CERT Valley Emergency Radio Training (FRS/GMRS/Walkie-Talkie)

When, not IF, a disaster strikes, cell phones and land lines will be overloaded and may not work. When that happens, the only reliable form of communication will be radio. This hands-on radio training class is perfect for those who just want to learn how to turn it on, listen and speak using a walkie-talkie radio.

This class will consist of hands-on training drills using a radio. As a bonus, members of the emergency communication group LAFD ACS (LAFD-Auxiliary Communication System) as well as LAFD CERT will be on hand to encourage us to become better radio operators.

So, come learn how to better communicate on a "walkie-talkie" radio so that when the time comes, you'll be prepared! (This series of radio trainings is open to all people interested in emergency radio communication using FRS/GMRS radios, aka, “Walkie-Talkies”.)
