Use of the WB6NDJ repeater is courtesy of the Oakland Radio Communications Association (ORCA). The WB6NDJ repeater is an open repeater: no dues are required for normal Amateur Radio use. However, you must be a member to make use of special features such as the telephone patch, when enabled.
It is recommended that you download the ARES Field Resources Manual and/or the Alameda County Instant Trainer well in advance of an emergency. Then either print it or save it to disk so it will be quickly available in times of emergency.
