Hurricane Watch Net
« on: August 26, 2020, 1734 UTC »
A quick reminder for those interested in monitoring the Hurricane Watch Net regarding Hurricane Laura.

https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at3.shtml

Daytime is 14325 USB and nighttime is 7268 LSB, though both or either might be used at any time depending upon conditions.

Here is a public WebSDR in Florida for those without coverage:

People in the path of the storm, please take care and stay safe.

Yeah!!! The leftovers are even predicted to dump here in WV this weekend. Good reminder on that net!
“I am often asked how radio works. Well, you see, wire telegraphy
is like a very long cat. You yank his tail in New York and he
meows in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? Now, radio is
exactly the same, except that there is no cat.”
-Attributed to Albert Einstein, but I ripped it from the latest Splatter .PDF March 2025 issue.
