[warn-news] W8NWS on the air for the 2007 statewide tornado drills

[Steve Lewis]

Here is the schedule for statewide tornado drills for this year:

Indiana
Severe Weather Awareness Week is 3/4-10.
Drills are 3/7, ~1030am and again at ~7pm.
WARN will be active on 146.88-, and the Ripley County 146.805- repeater 
if available. Please check in to "the network" only once per drill so 
we're not skewing headcounts.

Ohio
Severe Weather Awareness Week is 3/25-3/31
The drill is Wednesday, 3/28, at 9:50am.
WARN will be active on 146.88-, other counties may activate local nets 
as well.  Please check in only once to "the network" during the drill so 
as not to skew the headcount.

Kentucky
Severe Weather Awareness Month is 3/1-3/31
The drill is Tuesday, 3/6, at ~10am.
WARN will be active on 146.88-.

Please check in to the nets that correspond to these drills, even if you 
are outside of the state which is "hosting" the drill at the time.  The 
NWS accepts "numbers" from anywhere during any drill.

We will be looking for callsign and county (that's it) when taking 
checkins. We'll go for about 15 minutes unless, at the end of 15 
minutes, the repeaters are still "busy".
