The Suffolk County Legislature led by James Mazzarella set forth a resolution designating The Month Of June as “Amateur Radio Month” in Suffolk County NY.
The Suffolk County Radio Club recently hosted an Amateur Radio Day event, where local town and county legislators and community members witnessed Amateur Radio in action. Demonstrations featured Winlink, HF, VHF, UHF, Meshtastic and Software Defined Radios operating without relying on traditional infrastructure, showcasing the capabilities of both everyday and emergency off-grid communications that valid license holders can operate on.
