Rapid Deployment Emergency Operations Deployment
In the SDRA we take very seriously the public service nature of amateur radio, as well as the vocation and spirit of collaboration and solidarity that characterizes radio amateurs, so we have created the DROE system.
DROE, which stands for Rapid Deployment of Emergency Operations, will allow the use, in cases of emergency or national catastrophe, of equipment and set up for mobile and portable operations, deploying them in different points of the national geography, in short periods of time, placing them at the service of governmental emergency and relief agencies.
Our members have equipment and set ups of rapid deployment, usually used in outdoor operations, such as POTA, BOTA, SOTA, which include antennas, radios, batteries and other accessories, which in short times can be deployed to assist in emergency situations, with the advantage that they can be located in different parts of the country giving more coverage to communications and allowing a more effective and efficient care.
As part of the responsibility assumed by our organization to comply with national and international standards and with the role of public service that characterizes Amateur Radio worldwide, we have adopted our Emergency Communications Manual, under our DROE program.Â
