Radio for Emergencies

Learn how to use radio communication as a reliable backup during emergencies. We'll cover everything you need to get started, from getting your license to choosing the right gear.

In a crisis, a simple radio can be a powerful tool for survival. This workshop, led by the Lefty Radio League, is your friendly introduction to using amateur radio for emergency preparedness. We’ll focus on the principles of horizontal organizing and mutual aid, empowering you to help your community rather than relying on traditional relief efforts.

We’ll demystify the process, teaching you what you need to know to get your FCC license, choose the right equipment, and connect with others when traditional communication methods fail.

This is a great starting point for anyone who wants to add a robust and dependable communication tool to their emergency plan.

Please note that masks are required for all participants to ensure the health and safety of our community.

No experience is needed—just a willingness to learn how to keep yourself and your family connected no matter what.

The Lefty Radio League is a group of left-leaning members who share an interest in radio for mutual aid.
