Hurricane Watch Net Stood Down

Hurricane Watch Net

The Hurricane Watch Net concluded operations for Tropical Cyclone Beryl Monday at 12:00 PM EDT (1600 UTC). This has been a long 8 days of starting and stopping. However, this in no way compares to those who’ve lived through this devastating and deadly storm. Many areas will be recovering for years.

Solar activity was not kind to us over the past few days. Propagation on both 20 and 40-meters was horrible and iffy at times. But, our dedicated TEAM of operators banded closely together to get the job done.

I’ve said this for many years and it remains true to this day. We greatly appreciate the daily users and various nets who use 14.325.00 MHz and 7.268.00 MHz for allowing us a clear frequency. It certainly makes our job easier and I know those in the affected area appreciate it as well.

Our prayers go out to those who have been affected by Hurricane Beryl.
