twolane Posted September 28, 2022 Report Posted September 28, 2022 Is there a GMRS net that is monitoring Hurricane Ian? I am aware that there are Ham nets, (which I'm monitoring online), but it seems odd that there are no structured GMRS nets doing this. My local repeater is prepping for impact. Jax repeater 462.675.

SteveShannon Posted September 28, 2022 Report Posted September 28, 2022 For the most part ham nets are operated by local ham clubs and the net controller is a volunteer. Are you a member of a local GMRS club? You might be able to suggest that the local club have a net for emergencies. Be prepared to volunteer. Quote
MichaelLAX Posted September 28, 2022 Report Posted September 28, 2022 FWIW: On DMR I used to monitor Hurricane on 3199, and Florida is 3122. I also just found this: VOICE OVER INTERNET PrO"PiTI WEATHER NET Serving National Hurricane Center Quote
twolane Posted September 28, 2022 Author Report Posted September 28, 2022 here is a link to the SARNET in FL. Stations checking in from affected areas. https://www.broadcastify.com/webPlayer/35392 Quote
Lscott Posted September 28, 2022 Report Posted September 28, 2022 These guys might be sort of busy. There is a large NXDN digital voice linked repeater network right in that area. If you have a hotspot or an NXDN radio with access to a local networked NXDN repeater you could monitor the activity. Checkout the map further down the page for the covered zones. https://ni4ce.org/nxdn-digital-communications/ Quote
