[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2435077, member: 807"] I encourage anyone wanting to be a Ham to go to a local club meeting and check out the classes offered and the people. (Elmer is the term used for a mentor in Ham radio..) Great bunch of people everywhere. That said, you won't have a presentation directed toward the goals of this group unless a club specifically tailors a meeting with a program designed for this. Club meetings tend to follow a specific pattern, taking care of club business planning for upcoming events, for training, disasters, weather spotting etc. Some of which would certainly be of interest in this group, but clubs don't usually start at the base level in each meeting, they assume (and rightly so) that most of the attendees are operating at a higher skill level. People who want to know the basics of what they need in a SHTF situation will probably not be interested in the normal club meetings, and that is where a presentation from experienced communicators will be of benefit to the group. This presentation needs to have several presenters, as we tend to have tunnel vision in certain areas and having more than one presenter helps eliminate those holes. [/QUOTE]
