KMAS Radio

Jeff Slakey talks with the President of the Mason County Amateur Radio Club, Ben Hicks, who is preparing for an event that serves both as a gathering for enthusiasts and a practical test of equipment for emergencies. Ham Radio is important in emergencies, particularly when other communication systems fail. The upcoming 24-hour event at Sanderson Field aims to educate the public, demonstrate radio operations, and encourage new members to get licensed.
