VOLUNTEER HAM RADIO OPERATORS

“Formal Amateur Radio activity at the National Hurricane Center was initiated in 1980 and has been an important source of real-time weather observations before, during, and after hurricane landfalls. Dedicated HAM radio volunteers work at NHC during storm events to help provide NHC meteorologists with very important data that is used in the hurricane warning process.
Please visit http://www.wx4nhc.org/ for a more detailed history of the WX4NHC HAM radio service.”

We hope that this updated NHC web page will help promote public awareness about Amateur Radio and more activity from the Amateur Radio community during this hurricane season.

WX4NHC, a team of volunteer Amateur Radio operators, are very proud to have maintained
an active Amateur Radio Station at the National Hurricane Center for the past 30 years.

Our mission: To Help Save Lives.
