Hurricane Isaias Activation Plans on Hurricane Watch Net:
20 Meters — 14.325 MHz USB
Operations will begin at 8:30 AM EDT (1230 UTC) Friday and continue on this frequency as long as propagation permits. If continued operations are needed, HWN will resume on 20 meters at 8:00 AM EDT Saturday.
40 Meters — 7.268 MHz LSB
Operations will begin at 8:30 AM EDT (1230 UTC) Friday. HWN normally concludes 40-meter operations at 7:00 AM ET to accommodate the Waterway Net. Once that net has concluded, and if continued operations are necessary, HWN will resume 40-meter operations Saturday morning.
AllStar Link, EchoLink, Fusion, D-Star, DMR and other VoIP modes
Where to monitor on these modes can also be found at Hurricane Watch Net and VoIP Hurricane Net.
When hurricanes or tropical storms threaten, the Hurricane Watch Net activates on 14.325 MHz and 7.268 MHz, and will use either or both of these frequencies as propagation allows.
If conditions require, a CANWARN Net may be activated on all or part of the IRG system. Be sure to listen to and follow the instructions of the net control station in giving any reports - report only what is asked --and remember the important ABC's: Accuracy, Brevity & Clarity.
For those who wish to monitor on HF radio, you can get information about the current status of the Hurricane Watch Net, via their website.
For those who wish to monitor extreme weather activations via EchoLink, DMR, YS Fusion, D-Star, or other modes, you can find information on how to listen at the VoIP Hurricane Net home page. If you are not in an area affected by the hurricane, you should go to the "listen only" conferences to leave bandwidth free for those in need.
