Hurricane Radio Frequencies - Revised September 9, 2008

2008 Hurricane Frequencies
By Hugh Stegman NV6H
(Last Update 21 Jul 08)

All those funny x.1 frequencies used by US Air Force MARS have been changed
back to x.0, and appropriate corrections have been made here.

Added the Caribbean Weather Center daily net (http://www.caribwx.com/ssb.html).

Finally dropped the two remaining US military weather freqencies, as they've
been quiet for several years. If they come back from the dead, as they did
the last time I dropped them, I'll put them back.

SECURE is not dead, it's just spotty depending on the state. SHARES
Coordination Net freqs appear to be somewhat in flux, as they try
different digital modes (mostly PACTOR and ALE).

Amateur nets move around. Just tune the band for anyone obviously
using procedures.  20 meters above 14100 is prime hunting territory
in day time, and 75 meter LSB is common at night. Some move to 21 MHz
in the local afternoon hours, conditions permitting. Maybe we'll get
some sunspots one of these years.
