Hurricane Watch Net activates amateur radio frequencies
Original: # HamRadio # Weather Hurricane Watch Net (HWN) are 14.325 MHz USB during the day and 7.268 MHz LSB at night. Primary HF
The Hurricane Watch Net has announced its primary HF frequencies as it monitors hurricane activity: 14.325 MHz USB during daytime hours and 7.268 MHz LSB at night, with additional access via EchoLink's WX_TALK conference node (7203) and IRLP reflectors. Amateur radio operators are sharing the details so volunteers can report ground conditions and relay weather data when normal communications fail.
Why now: An active hurricane threat has prompted the net to publicize its operating frequencies and recruit or inform ham radio operators.
