Ontario Stake ERC : Introduction to Basic Emergency Communications

Completely new to emergency communications?

What is ERC?

ERC is stands for Emergency Response Communications. It is the Church's communication system in a disaster when all other forms of communication are cut off. It consists mostly of church volunteers who have their own radios and are licensed, and who practice communications with us in preparation for an emergency. It is a part of the Church's Welfare Services, presided over by the Church Welfare Services Committee, which is presided over by the Presiding Bishopric, but is administered at the Stake Level by the Stake President.

Individuals are encouraged to prayerfully consider any information contained herein and to always seek the guidance of their leaders if they have questions. Additionally, it is not an authoritative, definitive nor exhaustive compendium of the knowledge pertaining to amateur radio, it is just a summary of lessons learned to help others along faster in their quest for independent, personal emergency communications.
