Thursday night Weather Net - FULTON REPEATER

Good afternoon, everyone,

This is a friendly reminder to all local amateurs.

The local SkyWarn weather net meets every Thursday evening at 7:00 PM on the Fulton repeater, 145.450 MHz (–0.6 offset) with a PL tone of 192.8, unless otherwise announced.

Thanks to Jeff, KB5NMB, EchoLink access is now available for the 145.450 repeater. Simply download the EchoLink app, register, and connect to the KB5NMB-R node (463411). Please note there is a slight delay between the repeater and the EchoLink connection, so be patient and avoid rushing the QSO.

We look forward to hearing everyone tonight (Thursday) at 1900 CST. 73 to all!

Please help spread the word to your friends and fellow hams. If someone is not currently on our email list, have them send an email to nemra.inc@gmail.com with the subject line “add to email” requesting to be added to the general mailing list for club announcements. That’s all that’s required.

73,
NEMRA
