    WX4NHC Hurricane Season 2013 On-The-Air
      Station Test
    The WX4NHC Hurricane Season 2013
      On-The-Air Station Test will be held Saturday, June 1st, 2013 from
      9 AM - 5 PM EDT
      (1300z-2100z). The purpose of this event is to test the National
      Hurricane
      Center's Amateur Radio station equipment, antennas and computers.
      We will
      also perform operator training in preparation for this year's
      hurricane
      season. We will be making informal contacts on many frequencies
      and modes and
      would appreciate signal reports and basic weather data exchange
      ("Sunny," or
      "Rainy," etc.) from stations in any location.
    WX4NHC
      will be on-the-air on HF, VHF, UHF and 2 and 30 meter APRS. We
      plan on
      testing on the following voice frequencies: 3.950 MHz, 7.268 MHz,
      14.325 MHz,
      21.325 MHz, and 28.425 MHz. We will try to stay on 14.325 MHz most
      of the time
      and announce when we QSY. 
    You may be able to find us
      on HF by using one of the DX Spotting Networks, such as the DX
        Summit Web Site.
      We will also be on the VoIP Hurricane Net from 1 PM to 3 PM EDT
      (1700z-1900z) (IRLP node 9219
      / EchoLink WX-TALK Conference node 7203). Local South Florida area
      VHF and
      UHF repeaters will also be contacted.
    QSL cards are
    available via WD4R. Please send your card with a SASE. Please do NOT
    send QSLs
    directly to the Hurricane Center address, as it will get delayed.
    Due to
    security measures, NO VISITORS will be allowed entry to NHC without
    prior
    clearance from NHC Security. Only WX4NHC operators on the NHC
    pre-approved
    operating schedule will be allowed entry. For more information about
    WX4NHC, please
