[TCARES 0639] New ARES Manual for 2015 from the ARRL

[Stephen M. Parker, WR9A]

The ARRL has released a new and updated ARES Manual. The ARES Manual and
NTS Manual have together long been part of a single publication, The Public
Service Communications Manual. The two manuals will now be separate
publications. NTS leadership is currently reviewing and preparing to update
the NTS Manual.

The new ARES Manual includes several new additions - inclusion of ICS forms
213, 205, and 214 for ARES use; an expanded discussion on training
resources; clarification on the role and purpose of RACES; and copies of
all current ARRL MOUs. The update is the first in over two decades and was
a collaborative effort of field organization leaders, federal partners, and
ARRL staff.

The new manual is available online as a downloadable PDF on the Additional
Training Resources page in the Training section of the web site:
