ARRL Arizona Section Technical Specialists
The ARRL Arizona Section has a group of volunteers called Technical Specialists (TS) whose primary duty is to help solve interference issues. I currently am the Technical Coordinator for Arizona and attempt to interest the available TS's to volunteer to help resolve issues. I also occasionally help work various interference problems. The current ARRL Technical Specialists for the Tucson area are myself, Avery - WD4RTP, Michael - AC4AN and Richard - KD6VLN. I am very interested in finding other technically competent individuals to appoint to the TS ranks before I turn over the TC job to the next volunteer. I would very much like to see some suitable volunteers from the RST club ranks and it would be even better if RST formed an interference team to work such issues.
