I would like to see a catagory for the whole state of kentucky on ham radio in the database with this map:
Local Information Index

now under that can be listed ARES and skywarn nets under the maps in the diff districts. here ill start with one
District 11 SKYWARN net 146.925- Manchester PL 79.7 Linked 444.275+ PL 79.7 Corbin the other ham radio repeaters in Laurel County need to be updated as their only backup repeaters for SKYWARN

146.550 is DIST. 11 SKYWARN SIMPLEX OPS
146.475 simplex general talk-around

146.610- NO PL is the Laurel Amateur Radio Society Emergency NET- for the tri-counties of KNOX, LAUREL, and WHITLEY id like to see this kinda cleaned up and put these in the in the usual format u all do
also for external links
The Kentucky Amateur Radio Web Site

Shawn

ARES and RACES related freqs are the only ones allowed in rr.com... this is from the rr.com Submission Guidelines:

Quote:

Amateur Radio
* A.R.E.S. frequencies and repeaters used for emergency and Skywarn Nets only!
* R.A.C.E.S. frequencies and repeaters used for Emergency Mgmt. and Homeland Security Nets only!
* Do not send us any other Ham repeater info.

Freqs are generally listed by county, if there are multi-county listings needed (as you noted with the District 11 freqs) submit those with the counties where they should reside and it will be fixed per rr.com policy.... I understand that in many Kentucky counties those freqs are as important as Public Safety when things are happening. This is primarily a non-Ham website with the exceptions that have been noted in the Submission Guidelines....

this is primarily a non-HAM related website, although, they just added more HAM forums?

No problem.... When the creeks rise (been there), and the skies turn nasty (been there, too), and the ice is three inches thick (well, been there, too) I fully understand how important the Skywarn/RACES and other Emcomm freqs can be, especially when those are the only freqs talking! My Kenwood 2M rides with me all night long, chattering away with the four scanners... and Spring approaches.

Please submit freqs that fall within the guidelines.... if the freq is for an area larger than a county, such as the District 11 Skywarn freqs, list the counties where the freq is used....
