Cameron EOC has Digital Capabilities

Thanks to the efforts of KC0EFQ and NF0L the Cameron EOC now has digital capabilities using a SignaLink SL-USB and CAT controller cables connected the ICOM 706. This will be an extremely valuable tool should local internet services be rendered useless and information needs to be relayed to the State EOC or other entities. Using WINLINK® email or other digital modes this information will still be able to be sent when all other communications infrastructure has failed.
KC0QLU plans to use this setup on the 3rd Sunday of each month when he calls the weekly net to test the equipment. If you would like to runs tests from your station he will plan on running those tests immediately following the net.

Thanks again Corey and Blair for all your work on getting the EOC up to date with all the latest tools available to Amateur Radio and A.R.E.S. ®.
