Dunn County, Wisconsin
Amateur Radio Emergency Services
Who Are We?
We are a group of licensed amateur radio operators who volunteer our time, talents and equipment in case of emergencies. We hold additional certifications so that we can work with local governments, police, fire and emergency management in order to provide emergency communication if and when the need arises. We also provide radio communications for community events such as races and air shows.
The Dunn County ARES/ RACEs group is a fun and diverse group of people who love the amateur or “Ham” radio hobby. There are many different aspects to amateur radio. Each of our members finds what they enjoy most about the hobby: digital modes, Morse code, traffic handling, weather spotting, various forms of technology, equipment building, or emergency preparedness. We all enjoy the friendship and camaraderie of this shared interest.
