Special Announcement: *NEW-ENG3* Echolink Conference Node: 9123 to be Utilized for ARES-SKYWARN Operations

Hello to all..

The following announcement is for those Amateur Radio SKYWARN Spotters who utilize Echolink to reach WX1BOX when Amateur Radio Operations are active and/or SKYWARN liaisons during SKYWARN Self-Activations. The Echolink conference portion of the system has been changed. The Echolink conference portion of the system to reach ARES/SKYWARN Operations is now *NEW-ENG3*. The Echolink Conference node number for *NEW-ENG3* remains 9123 and if you are using IRLP, the channel to use remains 9123. This change was made to better align the conference systems to other Echolink/IRLP reflector systems. If you are utilizing the Echolink PC program, you will see that *NEW-ENG3* Echolink conference listed as ARES/SKYWARN under node number 9123. The SKYWARN Frequency listing document on wx1box.org has been changed and future SKYWARN Training Classes will reflect this change in the Echolink conference name.

If there are any questions, please contact Rob Macedo-KD1CY regarding this change. Thanks to all for your support of the NWS Taunton SKYWARN program.
