Now that it's spring and the severe weather season is approaching here in Wisconsin, I figured I'd post the 2006 frequency assignments used in support of the NWSFO in Milwaukee/Sullivan (MKX). As I get other comfirmed freqs from the ARX and GRB offices, I'll post them here. The below frequencies can be monitored for all incoming spotter reports and outgoing forecast and nowcast information from the MKX meterologists. These channels are monitored by various news media and public saftey agencies in the MKX County Warning Area (CWA) to gather information, so I figured that the responsible scanner listener may want to hear the info as well. As a special note for any hams...At no point should general spotter reports be made on these channels...use your local net for those.
The radio desk uses the callsign WX9MKX, and most communications made with local relays will use tactical calls (by county name or freq.)
