ARLX004 National Hurricane Center's WX4NHC announces 2003 on-the-air test

National Hurricane Center's Amateur Radio station WX4NHC (formerly W4EHW) will
conduct its 2003 hurricane season on-the-air station
test Sunday, June 1, 1300-2200 UTC. The event will mark the first
time the NHC uses its new WX4NHC call sign.

Amateur Radio Coordinator John McHugh, KU4GY, says the purpose of
the annual station test is to check out all of the WX4NHC radio,
computer and antenna equipment using as many modes and frequencies as possible.
Some RFI monitoring also will be done. Several new
operators will also receive hands-on training.

WX4NHC will operate on HF, VHF and UHF. Operation will follow this schedule: 1300
UTC--3.911 and 7.268 SSB and VHF/UHF FM; 1400
UTC--14.325 MHz SSB, VHF 147.000 repeater/UHF 442.350 repeater; 1500 UTC--144.200
MHz SSB, 14.070 MHz PSK31; 1700 UTC--14.325 and 21.325 MHz SSB, VHF/UHF IRLP Node
9210; 1800 UTC--21.325 and 28.525 MHz
SSB; 2000 UTC--14.325 and 144.200 MHz SSB. CW operation will be on 14.035, 21.035
and 28.035 MHz (times will vary).

Stations working WX4NHC are asked to provide a signal report,
location and brief weather report. QSL cards are available via
W4VBQ. Include an SASE with QSL requests.
