SATERN has been requested to provide Amateur Radio operators for Pensacola, Panama City, Tallahassee, and Tampa, as well as two to three local units in Georgia, and Divisional Headquarters in Atlanta.

>> The Hurricane Watch Net was active most of yesterday on 14325 and 7268. They were soliciting and passing weather observations from the area. Very well organized and directed nets. I'm not hearing them this morning on 20m but it may be propagation conditions.
