What I can tell you is that Tarrent counties RACES is actually Fort Worth RACES -
NEED TO STATE WHO THAT IS (person/call sign)? - do the individual towns?
report to Fort Worth? Florida has a county system tied into a state system
for coordination if a RACES EVENT OCCURS they have a spelled out program,?
where is Tarrant County¡¯s established stated program - how do we relate, say like to Parker county? RACES IS AN EVENT NOT A CLUB/GROUP with a procedure of
how it is handled. I have never heard or saw the written policy for Tarrant
County according to the Federal Regulations governing the TERM
¡°¸é´¡°ä·¡³§¡±.
I live in Tarrant not Dallas County. I understand it takes a government Offical
declaring an incident so that it qualifies as an RACES EVENT.?
The term ¡°FORT WORTH RACES IS INCORRECT¡±.
Thanks for the effort.

but it functions as a top level for Tarrent County.? Dallas county has a RACES organization for each city/town and they work together.? Not all of Texas is under RACES.? Many rual areas either operate weather nets under ARES or informal nets.?
Has RACES ever been explained to all the radio operators?
I don't think? there is a formal process to teach new hams, but many of the local clubs to talk about it.?

?I have a question - Who is the RACES decision person for
Tarrant county??
How does each city fit in the overall RACES Program vs. the
County?
Has RACES ever been explained to all the radio operators?
What is the State of Texas umbrella frequency for a multiple
County incident? or communication between counties?
Hurricane conference had presentations involving some of the
above questions regarding Florida.
