By Molly Rossiter, for The Gazette
When a derecho packing winds of 80 to 100 miles per hour — and gusts
topping 140 miles per hour — hit Eastern Iowa in August, about 400,000
Iowans were left without power and many had no cell service.
That meant no television news, no cable updates, and for many that rely
heavily on cellphones rather than landlines, limited phone access.
The Cedar Valley Amateur Radio Club has a motto for those times: “When
all else fails, radio.”
“For some people, it’s merely a hobby, but for a lot of us, it’s much
more than that,” said Scott Haney, president of the CVARC club.
“Ham radio operators are involved in emergency management, in large
event management, in a large variety of things. A lot of times people
don’t know we’re there, but we’re actually a large part of planning and
carrying out many events and gatherings.”
And in times of crisis — like the floods of 2008 or the derecho in
August — emergency management officers rely on amateur radio operators
to relay information and keep communications going when other systems
aren’t working because of electrical outages.
“We do need to be trained, we do need the licenses, to do that kind of
work,” said Haney, who is a former emergency manager for the Amateur
Radio Emergency Service in Iowa. “Just having a radio won’t do it. You
have to have someone who is competent to run the system.”

That includes being trained not only in emergency management but in
coping and sustaining when conditions are less than ideal.
“People don’t realize, especially in weather events like hurricanes,
amateur radio is a huge part of getting people in and out of dangerous
areas,” he said. “We’ve been doing that for decades.”
Amateur radio — the nickname “ham” radio dates back to the 19th century
and the age of the telegraph — uses a broad spectrum of radio
frequencies to communicate.
Some ham radios operate on shortwave frequencies allocated by the
Federal Communications Commission, also known as “amateur bands” and
located just above the AM frequencies.
Unlike FM frequencies that are closer to the Earth and limited in
range, amateur bands bounce off the Earth’s ionosphere from the
transmitter to an antenna, giving them a much longer range. In fact,
many enthusiasts enjoy the camaraderie of being able to talk to local
friends as well as connecting with others around the world.
Many operators and clubs use frequencies close to those used by
television and radio stations, as well as those near some police radar
frequencies.
To use a ham radio, you must pass a written test and be assigned a
unique call sign from the FCC. Until a few years ago, you also had to
learn Morse code, but the FCC has done away with that requirement.
Several local clubs offer a class for beginners to learn more and take
the exam. It’s possible to get started for under $100.
Although it’s called “amateur” radio, Haney is quick to make one
important distinction.
“The thing with amateur radio is that the use of the word ‘amateur’
doesn’t mean we don’t know what we’re doing,” he said. “It means we’re
not allowed to be paid for our services. Ever. Everything we do is on a
volunteer basis. We can’t take a nickel for any of it.”
What they do depends on the club and on the individual member, Haney
said. Many members of the Cedar Valley Amateur Radio Club are active in
a variety of activities. Early in November, for example, members
staffed the Pleasant Creek Trail Run, setting up along the route and
helping keep track of runners.
Haney has been a licensed amateur radio operator for almost 40 years,
getting his first license in 1982 during a visit to his grandparents
during his sophomore year in college. He’d always been interested in
radio, and that interest was bolstered by a high school friend’s
father, a civilian worker with the U.S. Air Force who was an amateur
radio operator.
“My friend’s father showed me you could get involved with radio without
actually doing it for a living,” Haney said.
He became more involved and during that 1982 trip to visit his
grandparents in Gary, Ind., he took a train to the Federal
Communications Commission office in Chicago.
“I took the test and got my license,” he said.
He graduated from the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre
Haute, Ind., with a degree in engineering and worked 30 years at
Rockwell Collins, now Collins Aerospace, before retiring in 2019.
Although Collins Aerospace is the primary reason Cedar Rapids is home
to the second-largest group of amateur radio operators per capita in
the world, Haney didn’t work in radio or communications. That, he said,
was something he did away from work.

As president of the Cedar Valley radio club, Haney helps organize open
house-type events that allow people to ask questions and learn more
about amateur radios and the club. A popular program each year is the
weather spotter training the club hosts with the National Weather
Service. The annual event is likely to be a virtual event in early 2021
because of continuing COVID-19 restrictions.
“Registration for the weather class was really large in 2009 after the
floods,” Haney said. “I don’t know what we’ll see this year.”
Though not everyone who registers is an amateur radio operator,
attendees are introduced to ham radio and the ways it can be used in
everyday life.
“For some people, it’s merely a hobby. For others, it’s more than
that,” he said. “It’s just a broad area for people with very broad
interests.”
