SKYWARN RADIO OUTAGE NOTIFICATION
SKYWARN OPERATIONS CENTER WAKEFIELD VA
1200 PM EDT SUN OCT 28 2012

.. REGARDING 146.76 REPEATER IN WILLIAMSBURG ..

WE HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL REPORTS OF DIFFICULTY HEARING OR ACCESSING THE
146.76 REPEATER IN WILLIAMSBURG. AFTER INVESTIGATING THESE CONCERNS,
THE REPEATER APPEARS TO BE FUNCTIONING NORMALLY. ADVERSE WEATHER
CONDITIONS WOULD APPEAR TO BE TO BLAME FOR THE COMMUNICATION TROUBLE.

PLEASE SELECT ANOTHER SKYWARN REPEATER, USE APRS MESSAGING TO WX4AKQ-1,
WINLINK TO WX4...@WINLINK.ORG, OR UTILIZE THE ODEN HF FREQUENCY TO
CONTACT WX4AKQ WITH YOUR REPORT.

OUR ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO NOT UTILIZE ODEN FOR SPOTTER REPORTS BUT
CONSIDERING THE LOW VOLUME OF TRAFFIC ON ODEN, IF YOU MUST CONTACT
WX4AKQ VIA ODEN YOU MAY DO SO UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
