Spotter Reporting
If possible, all reporting of severe weather should be to a local "Net Control Operator*", who will gather all reports from our area and pass them on to the NWS in North Little Rock, Arkansas and to local Emergency Management Personnel.
It is preferred that reporting be done via radio**. Many more reports can be taken in a given time and the reports can be heard by all persons monitoring that frequency.
If the spotter is not a licensed Amateur Radio Operator*** or a member of a Public Service agency, reports can be made via telephone to the local Net Controller.
Primary Frequencies To Be Used - Locally
146.880 Amateur Repeater Hot Springs 146.715 Amateur Repeater Mount Ida 154.220 Countywide Repeater Garland County 154.100 Countywide Repeater Montgomery County
