[SMCARA] Hurricane Watch on 64 Repeater

[Clarke, Tom VX-20 OPS]

Greetings everyone.

Well we have our first hurricane of the season.  Track is still kinda flakey but in preparation for the worst, I propose the start of the K3HKI watch net again.  Starting tonight at 1830 local on the .64 machine I will call the net and take check ins.  This shouldn't be a hard-core net.  Looking for the following information.

1.  Do you have traffic
2.  Are you ARES/RACES
3.  Do you have emergency power capability
4.  what are your capabilities.  (HF/VHF/UHF/CB/FRS/GMRS/MURS etc)

Example check in would be

"KB3JLZ no traffic emergency power have HF, VHF, UHF capability"  or "KB3JLZ no traffic emergency power, HF, VHF, UHF RACES affiliation."

Once I roger up for your check in.  Your free to go.  Quick and painless.  When the threat of the storm passes, this net will go to every Tuesday (that's another email).

I would also ask that this be passed on the SMCARA reflector (someone...please) and pass to whomever you think may need this information.

Thanks a bunch and feel free to yammer at me with suggestions and if you want to roger up for a NECOS/Alt NECOS slot.
