Hello. I'm W7KYG. This is a place where I collect information about Amateur Radio. Below are practice nets and events that may be of interest to hams in the DFW area.
Nets meet regularly on the same day(s) and time(s) each week and provide opportunities to practice your radio skills. The net control operator will explain the general purpose or topic of the net, call for operators to check in, and moderate the conversation during a net.

The radio spectrum is vast and frequencies must be generally recognized for certain modes or activities to reduce interference. Study carefully applicable laws and regulations related to the use of frequencies before receiving, monitoring, scanning or transmitting.
During disasters or other emergencies, NTS radiograms are used to communicate information critical to saving lives or property, or to inquire about the health or welfare of a disaster victim.
Repeaters include two or more radios that simultaneously receive and retransmit radio transmissions. They are often connected to antennas that are positioned on towers or buildings and can be used by licensed operators to extend the range of communications.
The US National Weather Service trains volunteer storm spotters to collect ground truth during severe weather and uses reported information to improve forecasting. The Amateur Radio Service enables us to communicate more effectively with the meteorologists.
