    I'll definitely try to make it out to the skywarn training session and 
to one of the local ARES group meetings as well.

    I tune in and listen to it occasionally.  Unfortunately I've never been 
able to reach the 442.950 repeater from home and I can no longer reach the 
146.940 repeater (I seem to be in a dead spot over here now, whatever it is, 
it happened in the last few months), so I won't be able to participate in 
the traffic net.  :-(

    It's what I needed to know to get started!  :-)

Thanks,
Brian
