>A SKYWARN weather reporting drill is scheduled for Wednesday, June 25, 
>during Lightning Safety Awareness Week, which is the last full week in 
>June. This will be a general communications exercise centered on weather 
>reporting; all EMCOMM operators are encouraged to participate (weather

>In advance of this drill, operations training will be conducted at the 
>National Weather Service Amateur Radio Station on Tuesday, June 24 from 
>6:30 P.M. until 8:30 P.M. Operators will be trained on use of the SKYWARN 
>report/communications logging software, packet radio operations using the 
>equipment at the station, and functions available on our computer 
>workstation. There is a definite need for more operators trained and 
>practiced in the use of amateur station WX7RNO equipment, and this 
>function is not limited to licensed hams; non-hams can assist as well. So, 
>please plan to attend and participate in this training so that you know 
>how to use all the tools available when called on to operate the station.
