ARES District 10

Amateur Radio Emergency Service
Jackson, Larimer, and Weld Counties, Colorado    USA

News:

Jun-26-2002:
To all weather spotters: If you have Severe weather to report in our area, I recommend that you start by attempting to raise the Net controller for that day on our Primary frequency of 145.115- . If the 145.115- is not functioning properly, try our primary backup: 147.195+ Our secondary backup is 147.000+ . All repeaters currently in use, require a 100 Hz tone. The only exception is the 145.115- when we are in formal WX mode, when a tone of 91.5 Hz is required.

Please remember that most of our net controllers do work during the day and may not be readily available but should be shortly, particularly if it is an active weather day. Your consideration will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Randy W0AVV, Severe Weather Coordinator, ARES D-10.

Our previous ISP, Info2000, was apparently sold to Mindspring (EarthLink), so this D10 website abruptly moved here. I suggest listing this ARES Colorado District 10 website as http://home.earthlink.net/~aresco10/index.htm (Sep-30-2001, corrected Mar-3-2002).

Randy Long WØAVV prepared this Mar-11-2000 SKYWARN press release .

On Sunday Feb-6-2000, Randy Long WØAVV retired as our Emergency Coordinator. Thank you Randy for all your good work! Richard Walters KØRAW is our new Emergency Coordinator. Congratulations Richard!

The good news on Larimer County and Amateur Radio Tower Status, Jan-9-2000

Randy WØAVV recommended this Reference Library   from the Virginia ARES/RACES . There is a great wealth of information at this site, especially the Battery fact and fiction and the Auxiliary Power for Communications.

Randy WØAVV also pointed to these neat lightning pictures .
