  The Communication 
        Reserve Unit is staffed by volunteer amature radio operators. These licensed 
        "ham's" provide the Sheriff's Office with additional communications capabilities 
        during emergencies and special functions. Members of the Communications 
        Reserve Unit are not peace officers, and serve in a non-sworn support 
        role. Meetings are held at the Butte County Sheriff's Office on the first 
        Wednesday of every month at 1900 hrs. For more information contact Sheriff 
        Scott Mackenzie's (KA6SUY) office at (530) 538-7321.
