[HCRA] Rat Shack at it again

[Daniel J. Sullivan]

This week if you turn your Rat Shack circular to page 27BS and look at the upper right hand corner you will see a scanner for sale. It is advertised as follows:

"Radio Scanners with 1-touch access to storm spotters. 
Skywarn button lets you hear local reports 2-3 minutes before NOAA weather service can announce them!"

Upon closer inspection of the unit you see the frequency set at 146.94. I know that is the main Western MA SKYWARN frequency on 2m for Hampden and Hampshire Counties. I also found out that is the SKYWARN frequency in the Texas community where Rat Shack has its headquarters.

What will they think of next!!!!!
