Getting new ham operators for the ERC:

A few people interested in ham radio are young and have little resources. What about the ERC purchasing and maintaining a set of manuals and/or books on ham radio that can be checked out on a monthly basis. This would provide potential operators with technical information sufficient to get a technician license. Introduction to ham radio manuals and license manuals would be very useful. What do you guys think?

I recently built 2 meter antenna from an old rabbit ears antenna and use it as a dipole. If anyone would like details on what I did, contact me. It seems to work very well. This might useful information if your regular antenna gets destroyed during a disaster.
