Notes
Radio Emergency Associated Communications Teams are volunteer
radio operators who are organized internationally and use
two-way radios to provide public service communications for
travelers and their local communities. REACT Teams provide
help during emergency operations and public service events,
such as parades, triathlons, etc.
REACT Teams provide communications in response to emergencies
and for community events. They utilize GMRS, UHF, VHF, Amateur,
and other radio services. Teams participate in their communities'
disaster preparedness plans through cooperative agreements with
ARRL, NOAA, VOAD, American Red Cross and the Salvation Army.
The Texas State REACT Council has 9 member teams in Texas,
including all the major cities like Dallas/Ft. Worth, San Antonio
and Austin, plus other communities in between. In 2005, two teams
in the San Antonio Metro Area merged into a single team covering
4 counties.
