Overview:
When you are not at a fixed station (home or a served agency), are you prepared to operate Winlink from a temporary location? For example, could you use Winlink with a laptop, a small TNC, and your handheld radio? This presentation will give you some practical tips for setting up a portable Winlink station.

Presented by our guest:
Bruce Richter, Region 10 Coordinator, Emergency Communications Division, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, U.S. Department of Homeland Security

Communications emergencies aren't always caused by natural disasters, sometimes people are involved. After an overview of CISA's Role in Emergency Communications, the remainder of this presentation will be a briefing on communications impacts of recent human-caused incidents, including cyber disruptions, and what temporary communications assistance was deployed.
