General Meeting – August 2025 – Communications for the July 2025 Kerr County Flood Event

Please join RWK on Monday August 11th for our General Meeting. 

You had to be living under a rock for the past month not to know what the biggest story in Texas has been: The Guadelupe River Flood Event on July 4th 2025, where over a hundred people were lost. We have some insight into the multi-agency response to the event. Eric Gildersleeve KD7CAO (RWK Member and President of DCARA) was deployed to Kerr County for 15 days to serve as COMT (communications technician) – responsible for the installation and coordination of the radio systems for the various (I think there were close to 50) responding agencies, each with their own equipment and radios. Eric will share his experiences (and lots of pictures) of those 15 days and helping to organize the chaos.
