   This message was from Daryl Stout #1 @1501000*1 to All   
   originally in conference Local/Arkans on TBOLT (The Thunderbolt BBS)   
   and was forwarded to you by DARYL STOUT   
                       ----------------------------------------   
   With the severe weather potential likely across Arkansas on both   
   Wednesday and Thursday, I've been asked to activate "The Weather   
   Watch Net" sometime during the day late on Wednesday (when storms   
   enter the National Weather Service Little Rock, Arkansas County   
   Warning Area).   
      
   I used to do these all the time from my apartment, until constant   
   interference on the repeater, health issues, and inspection criteria   
   put a damper on that. Since I don't have RF equipment on hand, I   
   will be loaned some for the event by Arkansas Skywarn (tm).   
      
   With the potential magnitude of what this severe weather event may   
   entail, I would hope that management would make an exception for my   
   "providing communications essential to the protection of life and   
   property".   
      
   The net is actually a "prelude" to full activation of "Arkansas   
   Skywarn (tm)". But, due to ongoing renovations at the National   
   Weather Service in North Little Rock, I may end up doing the entire   
   episode from my apartment.   
      
   In Arkansas, the net will be activated on the W5DI repeater system.   
      
   A list of the repeaters is located at:   
      
   http://carenclub.com/carenrepeaters.php   
      
   For those outside of the central Arkansas area, you can LISTEN LIVE   
   on the internet at:   
      
   http://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/5167/?rl=rr   
      
   Details on Arkansas Skywarn are at:   
      
   http://www.arkskywarn.org   
      
   As it looks now, activation should take place sometime Wednesday   
   afternoon, and it may last well into Thursday night.   
      
   The net will be a DIRECTED Net, and all stations MUST go through   
   Net Control. Stations failing to comply with directions from Net   
   Control will be ordered off frequency...and continued failure to   
   comply will result in action from ARRL Official Observers, and   
   the FCC, for possible enforcement, due to interfering with a net.
