WX4MIA Activation Tomorrow 5AM

Bryan #51 WX4MIA the Amateur Radio Station at the National Weather Service in Miami will be commencing Net operations for the approach and passing of Hurricane Charlie. We will be taking local severe weather reports and relaying them to the local forecasters at the NWS via the following repeaters and modes. 147.060 will be our primary net frequency. This repeater has Echolink on it we ask that stations not in the area not connect directly to the repeater as we will need it for local reports only. 147.760 will be our back up in case the primary goes down. We will also be on IRLP. I may connect our local repeater to the 921 reflector on channel 3 if I can get permission to do so in time for tomorrows nets. Stations in the NWS coverage area can connect to the reflector as needed to relay report to the NWS. If this does not pan out then we will connect directly with stations in the effected areas. This repeater will be 442.250 the PARC Repeater. This is WX4MIA's first test of the VOIP network. We hope all will go smooth. We are not expecting a direct hit, but wind rain and severe weather can be expected on the East coast and the Keys are expected to be hit. Bryan N4EBC VOIP IRLP/Echolink Liaison WX4MIA NWS Miami
Rob Macedo All Messages By This Member #55 开云体育 Hi Bryan, My name is Rob Macedo, KD1CY, and I will be the net control tomorrow morning for the VoIP Net to support the National Hurricane Center from the SEMARA (Southeast Massachusetts Amateur Radio Association) just outside of New Bedford, Massachusetts. We'll be under our club call-sign, W1AEC. We also have capability to monitor IRLP node 9213 locally and will monitor in the background. If you need anything from me, let me know. I am the SKYWARN Coordinator for the National Weather Service in Taunton, Massachusetts and our call-sign there is WX1BOX. We have used VoIP technology to overcome the tough terrain in Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut to be able to talk directly to those areas during SKYWARN Activations. We have been very pleased with how its worked for us. Nice to meet you over the email list and hopefully its quiet in your part of Florida and if it isn't, hopefully everything will work with no glitches. Take care! 73,Rob-KD1CY.
