SKYWARN

During severe weather Skywarn® repeaters relay severe

weather reports from Amateur Radio operators in the

field to local National Weather Service offices. When

there is no severe weather these repeaters are used

for routine communications by licensed Amateur Radio

operators. Monitoring Skywarn®, you will hear actual

reports as they are called in. You will hear locations near

you and you will hear those reports minutes before they

are relayed on NWS Weather broadcasts and much

sooner than on radio or TV.

To import Skywarn® Frequencies:

1. Browse for Skywarn® frequencies in the EZ Scan

library and import them to the Skywarn® Scanlist.

If not found in the library, check with a local

Amateur Radio club. Find a local one at

www.arrl.org.

2. Enable the Skywarn® Scanlist.

To activate Skywarn®:

1. Press once to enter Weather Mode.

2. Press again to activate Skywarn®.

NOTE: Skywarn® temporarily disables all other

Scanlists. Remember, local EOC offices (county sheriff

or local police) are an important part of Skywarn®. Feel

free to add EOC talkgroups to your Skywarn® scanlist.
