[SBE16-Seattle] [EAS-WA] [SECC-WA] SRN RELAY

[K7CR]

Thanks for the report, Gabe - 

 

It appears that the State Relay Network is in need of serious attention.

 

This will be on the agenda at the SECC Meeting - 

Jan 14th at 930 - Hope you can join us in person or by phone.

Your report, heard by others, will be helpful

KWCC (Apple Valley TV) has not received the SRN from Burch Mountain
recently. 

 

However, we monitor our Local Primary KPQ AM and KPQ FM as well as National
Weather Service and have received the regular RWT and RMT. They all use the
same antenna, but when the Burch Mountain SRN relay was repaired this
Summer, we noticed significantly low quality audio on two separate scanners
for the SRN only. Previous to the Burch Mountain SRN issue and repair, we
were receiving SRN messages. However, the NPT was received by KPQ August
7th, 2019 and we received their forwarded message. 

 

I'm not sure if anything can be done to improve the quality of the Burch
Mountain SRN, but we have no issues receiving KPQ or NWS on FM with the same
antenna (NWS broadcast from Burch Mountain as well).

The State Relay Network (155.475 MHz) @ 1207 PM today - Relayed an RWT from
the National Weather Service in Seattle.

 

Who received this forwarded message FROM THE SRN?

 

Thanks
