The effects of severe weather are felt every year bymany Americans. To obtain critical weather information,NOAA's National Weather Service (NWS), part of the U.S.Department of Commerce, established SKYWARN® withpartner organizations. SKYWARN® is a volunteerprogram with between 350,000 and 400,000 trainedsevere weather spotters. These volunteers help keeptheir local communities safe by providing timely andaccurate reports of severe weather to the NationalWeather Service.

CERT educates individuals about disaster preparednessfor hazards that may impact their area and trains themin basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, lightsearch and rescue, team organization, and disastermedical operations. Using training learned in theclassroom and during exercises, CERT volunteers canassist others in their community following a disasterwhen professional responders are not immediatelyavailable to help. CERT volunteers are also encouragedto support emergency response agencies by taking anactive role in emergency preparedness projects.

Digital Smart Technologies for Amateur Radio
D-STAR 26
Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) was developed by the EuropeanTelecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and is used worldwideby professional mobile radio users. [http://www.dmrassociation.org]
DMR is divided into three tiers. Tier I is a single channel specificationoriginally for the European unlicensed dPMR446 service. It is a singlechannel FDMA 6.25 kHz bandwidth; the standard supports peer-to-peer(mode 1), repeater (mode 2) and linked repeater (mode 3) configurations.The use of the Tier I standard has been expanded into radios for use inother than the unlicensed dPMR446 service. [http://www.dpmr-mou.org]
Tier II is 2-slot TDMA 12.5 kHz wide peer-to-peer and repeater modespecification, resulting in a spectrum efficiency of 6.25 kHz per channel.Each time slot can be either voice and/or data depending upon systemneeds. IP Site Connect (IPSC) for interconnecting repeaters over theInternet is vendor specific and is not part of the ETSI standards at thistime. Most amateur radio implementations of DMR are using voice onboth time slots. Source: http://www.dmr-marc.net/
DMR 27
Software Defined Radio (SDR) 28
SDR defines a collection of hardware and software technologies where some or all of the radio’s
operating functions (also referred to as physical layer processing) are implemented through
modifiable software or firmware operating on programmable processing technologies.

APRS - Automatic Packet Reporting System 32APRS is not a vehicle tracking system. It is a two-way tactical real-time digital communications system
between all assets in a network sharing information about everything going on in the local area. On
ham radio, this means if something is happening now, or there is information that could be valuable to
you, then it should show up on your APRS radio in your mobile. Source: http://www.aprs.org/

Broadband-Hamnet™ (formerly called HSMM-Mesh™) is a high speed, self discovering, self configuring, fault tolerant, wireless computer network that can run for days from a fully charged car battery, or indefinitely with the addition of a modest solar array or other supplemental power source. The focus is on emergency communications.

Simply connect a 137-138MHz FM communications receiver, scanner, or weather satellite
receiver to your soundcard and get stunning colour images directly from weather satellites.
The only other item you'll need is an antenna for receiving the circularly polarised signals.
