Who we are, and what we do

We're the Hancock County Amateur Radio Emergency Service. We provide auxiliary communications for Hancock County in Ohio during emergency situations, public service events, and pass information to the National Weather Service during severe weather. Head over to "Learn More" to see some of the services we provide and participate in.
