SKYWARN Frequencies for Chaves County

 

There will normally be a controlled ham-radio net, with a designated NCS when SKYWARN is activated.

 

Chaves County Skywarn volunteers should monitor the closest repeater in the ARES/RACES State-wide Repeater System when the possibility of severe weather exists. This repeater system should be fully operational and linkable by the start of the 2010 storm season (March).

 

If SKYWARN is activated or likely to be activated, the Chaves County Emergency Manager (or designate) can request the Benson, Caudill, Claud, Gallinas, and Albuquerque repeaters all be linked together.  

 

The Caprock repeater on 147.18+ MHz (no tone) can be used to alert the SKYWARN spotters that they should activate and should tune to the nearest repeater in the ARES/RACES State-wide Repeater System. 


The Skywarn Net Control Station (NCS) will pass consolidated reports to Albuquerque NWS (WX5ABQ) via the ARES/RACES State-wide Repeater Network, or by telephone. 

For liaison with Eddy County, we can use the Artesia W5COW repeater on 444.975 MHz (156.7 Hz tone)

 

For liaison with far southeastern New Mexico and West Texas, we might need to use the West Texas Connection (WTC) repeater system.  The Maljamar WTC frequency is 442.075 MHz (162.2 Hz tone) and the Dark Canyon frequency is 147.120 MHz (88.5 Hz tone).

 

All of the repeaters use a standard offset.
