Hello all,
As some of you are probably aware, Skywarn Recognition Day is occurring again this year. It officially runs from 7PM EST Friday 12/2/2016 to 7PM EST Saturday 12/3/2016 (i.e. 0Z to 24Z 12/3/2016). This is a special event conducted as a joint effort with the National Weather Service and the ARRL. Our local NWS office in Mount Holly, NJ will be activated for the event again this year. If anyone would like to help out by operating the station at Mount Holly, or if you have any questions, please let me know at k2dcd.dura at gmail.com asap.
We will be on Echolink and HF, but if we have enough operators, we can be on VHF, APRS and if anyone wants to try mobile from the parking lot, we can also do that for HF.
At this time, we will likely operate Friday evening 0000-0500 and then again, Saturday 0700-2400 closeout of SRD. (but, if someone really wants to do the overnight hours, we can consider that). We would like to have a good team for this, so, please consider doing this if you are available.
73 & Thank You
