For information about the group equipment purchase (for Wouxun and Yaesu radios),

click Buying a HAM Radio.  You'll find an ordering link, price info, manufacturer website links, comparison between Wouxun and FT-60R, etc.

Click Class documents to open a Google folder which contains the student handout, Powerpoint slides, Proctor and Instructor briefing documents.  See "Note:" below for a shortcut to using these files...

The Powerpoint "Lecture,CERT Get on Air Class 1..." is the slideshow presentation used in the class.  It covers basic CERT radio usage and good communicating practices for both HAMS and FRS people.  During an emergency, we'll need lots of communicators - the radio may vary.  (Found in folder "Instructor Lecture Material")

The PDF "STUDENT HANDOUT, CERT Get on Air Class 1..." was distributed in class and contains practice drills and a summary of key communication practices (found in folder "Printed Material").

The PDF "PROCTOR Briefing, ROSSMOOR Map,CERT Getting on the Air Class 1" and "Proctor DRILLS,..." were distributed to Proctors.  (Found in folder "Printed Material".)

Note: The easiest way to view/download these documents is use your "Google Drive".  If you have a Google drive, in a separate browser tab, sign-in and open it.  Then click the "Class documents" link above.  In the new page, near the upper right, you'll see "Open in Drive".   If you don't have a "Google Drive", then you'll have to view/download the files.
