    Supporting the Lone Rock Fire Response
    Â
    The July 2025 issue of QST focuses on amateur radio's commitment and contributions to emergency communications. Just one of the many ways hams

    first involvement in a FEMA activation and gets a first-hand look at how the Incident Command System works.
