Help us keep the lights on!
The SWCRS incurs regular, and very real, operating expenses associated with deploying new equipment, maintaining existing equipment, and keeping a plethora of other things running.
SWCRS is a collective effort of several groups and individuals providing a public service via a wide spread and sophisticated two-way radio system. Help us out! See the following groups and individuals and what they contribute to the system:
