The Sheriff's Tactical Amateur Radio Communications (STARC) was founded in August 1999. The purpose of the organization is to provide communications services, in the event of a natural or man-made disaster:
Supply ancillary communications between Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office facilities Establish and maintain communications with other public safety, utility and disaster service organizations Provide an alternate means for the timely reporting of hazardous or emergency situations from the public to the Hillsborough County Communications Center via amateur radio
We are not a CLUB, we are a service organization. STARC Volunteers are required to undergo an extensive background investigation including fingerprinting by the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.
All volunteers are expected and required to contribute a minimum of 9 (nine) hours every 3 (three) months, attend 2 (two) meetings per calendar year. 1 (one) meeting from January to June and 1 (one) meeting from July to December not including the holiday meeting. - Links:
