"“HWN members are hams who have above-average stations, are capable of effectively conducting HF net operations and are willing to commit their time to operating in support of the HWN’s mission during Net activations.” The HWN net operates on 14.325 MHz, so prospective members must be able to legally transmit on that frequency to participate."
The HWN is looking for new members with stations that can effectively communicate with Central America and the Caribbean, Mexico and South Texas on the 20 meter band.
As we head into the 2011 hurricane season, they're looking for qualified amateurs who are located anywhere within North America or the Caribbean,”
They are also looking for bilingual hams. They recognize that some Latin American operators hesitate to check in and make reports if they aren’t fluent in English, so they're also interested in hearing from hams who are fluent in both Spanish and English.
When they're working storms that are either affecting or threatening areas where Spanish is the language of choice, they always try to have one or more bilingual HWN members on hand to help with reporting.”
