The equipment that was used is part of the dedicated portable equipment that is used by the Trinity County Amateur Radio Club ARES Group in emergencies. The JOTA gave a chance to set up the equipment and be certain it works for emergencies.

It was carefully repacked and inventoried and awaits it's next use. Portable Digital equipment and VHF antennas are also used when this equipment is deployed.
