On The Air

Nets and repeaters.

Where we meet, when we meet, and how to get into the system.

Schedule

Our nets.

Weekly

Weekly Training Net

Tuesdays at 7:00 PM Central

The full linked N0NWS system

Our regular on-air practice net, open to everyone. Newly trained spotters are encouraged to check in and get comfortable passing a report before severe weather makes it count.

Activated As Needed

Severe Weather Net

Activated any time there are active warnings in the CWA

The full linked N0NWS system

Called by net control when warnings are issued for our county warning area. Spotters report ground truth that goes directly to NWS Springfield.

Repeaters

The N0NWS linked system.

Our nets run across the full linked system, so you can check in from whichever machine you can hit. All offsets are standard 2 meter; every site requires an encoded PL tone.

    Wait to be acknowledged.

  4. 4

    Pass your traffic, if you have any.
