Nebraska spotters

[Justin McGinley]

Just seeing whos all spotters for the cornhusker state!!! If you are how many of you are ham operators? Also who do you spot for and for which county. I spot for the Bruning fire department/thayer county.

I was a spotter for Douglas County (Omaha) for about 10 years. I have since moved up and now volunteer for Douglas County EMA and help with our various Spotter, ARES and CERT groups. My HAM callsign is KC0UJT.

Hey I am a spotter for Adams County (Hastings) and i am currently trying to find out how to get my HAM license as i am only 17 years old going on three years of chasing

 

[Alex Heimberger]

In the Buffalo County Area. Not a ham operator.

I *would* be a spotter, but if there are storms that day I'm probably chasing far far away from Sarpy County or working. But I really appreciate the work you guys do! Had a great talk with a firefighter / spotter near Ulysses, NE a few years back, just moments before the town got hit.

Ethan,

I am no longer living in Nebraska but I grew up in Minden and was a member of the Hastings Amateur Radio Club about 15 years ago. They have a different name now but if you reach out to them through their website http://www.w0wwv.org I am sure that they would be happy to help you out with getting your license. I am sure they are still a great group of folks.

Best of luck.

Who do you contact to spot in Cass County? I'm around the Eagle area. Not sure if there is a need. I typically spot for Lancaster EOC but wouldn't mind the Eagle area.

I don't spot for Cass County yet. I would assume you would contact Cass County Emergency Management/Cass County Emergency Operating Center

I chase every opportunity possible but i am limited by my job and by my vehicle. I chase out of Washington county, Nebraska. (Blair)

I'm trained in Douglas county if we're getting technical, but Heartland REACT has a pretty good handle on the Omaha metro. I always have Spotter Network up while chasing in case I see anything reportable.

EDIT: At the time of the post I was not trained, I am now and I can also drive so I am now a spotter/chaser for Cass County and surrounding areas. I hope to get a HAM radio soon.
