[PHX-Skywarn] Skywarn Coordinator

[Lee Levine]

I was lucky as I was able to take a No-Code Technician class at the
Arizona Science Center.
If you can do that, great.  If not, the standard book is "Now Your
Talking!" which is available
at Ham Radio Outlet at 19th Ave and Dunlap.  There are practice tests in
that book as well as
on-line at www.qrz.com . Take those tests, and when you pass them at 80%
or better, then you
can take a real test. DeVry Institute of Technolgy's Amateur Radio Club
gives the test once a month.

As for which radio and antenna, it all depends on whether you will do
most hamming in the car or at home,
how much you have to spend and if you have a place to put up the best
antenna.

    Well, Thank you very much.  I have toyed with the idea for some time and just keep
    putting it off for some reason.  I will ask you, what is the best way to get started and
    up and running?  I think it would be cool to get involved in that aspect of skywarn.  I
    have been thinking about a logo for the site and I'll try and put it together.  What I
    had in mind was a ham operator on one side, and observer the other storm clouds in the
    middle and the NWS around the bottom and a lighting bolt across the design.  Just a
    starting point to show how we all come together in times or sever weather.
    
            Thanks
