Indeed Brian,
It appears to be the same eqo-massaging ham-think that we see from time to
time. A lot of hams think they're superior to every other radio service,
and never hesitate to demean anyone or anything that isn't ham. OOoo! I got
a license...
Besides being a ham, and being a RACES officer, I work with REACT and GMRS
people that many times put the hams to shame in dedication, technical
ability and public service. Indeed this person IS practicing hip-shoot, and
his attitude does more to hurt the inter-operability of the established
emergency services than to help.
Oh, and in case you haven't heard, we WILL be working inter-operable with
those nasty "citizen" groups on homeland security, so get used to it quick.
A weather service like this is obviously a good tool for prediction of an
air-release event, so don't be so quick to condemn. I wish it would go
nationwide, it would be a valuable tool for other weather related issues,
from pollution tracking, to forest fire prediction to skywarn. I would
encourage rather than demean these people.
We should be encouraging these people to get their ham licenses, but talk
like this does little to encourage and more to re-enforce antiquated
stereotypes of big egos and bad manners.
To that author: You may now open mouth and change feet...and check your ego
at the door.
Sheesh!

It became Federal law a while back. It was sponsored by SEN Feingold.
The NC Law that is in the GA, now does in fact, make violations of Part 95
a state crime. So it meet the requirement of th Federal Law.
I don't know about where you live, but here in NC any person can go
to a magistrate, present probable cause and have a warrant issued.
LEOs serve the warrant. BTW, citizens arrest was done away with here
in NC many moons ago. We have a citizens detention for certain offenses
and this would not be one of them.
Thy've earned the reputaion they have!

I'm curious to learn all weather related extensions currently available
on the firenet server.
First, notice the RAWS stations are reporting Fnnn and fnn as part of
their wx data packet. Would like to know what these values are and do
current aprs program know what they are?
Second, the BUOY stations have something called wvp, what does this
acronym stand for? If I had to guess, I would call it wave period?
Thanks in advance.

Michael, you can visit www.dwrracesupport.com/fire and see the
specifications for the RAWS, Ship and Buoy data.
just look around on the links...it's there. I've added some pop-up hints to
the links to make it easier to find.
