Hawaii Island Amateur/Ham Radio notes:
During the current Kilauea Volcano eruption and lava flow emergency, please monitor the VOAD Repeater atop Mauna Kea (146.70 MHz, 100 Hz tone) and the 40 meter interisland net on 7.088 MHz (LSB). These frequencies can be used to send emergency traffic if the need arises. East Rift Zone Eruption Updates are issued by the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency and broadcast over Hawaii Island radio stations and through the social media. Be sure your “go-kit” and emergency supplies are packed in your vehicle if you are asked to evacuate a lava-threatened area.
Please send your Hawaii Island Amateur/Ham Radio news items to kh6jrm@arrl.net for inclusion in this blog and on publications issued by our local print and broadcast media.
Thanks for joining us today.
