THE OFFICIAL OBSERVER COORDINATOR

John H. Thomas, III, W3FAF, is our Official Observer Coordinator.  This is a position that John has held before and John has been an OO for many years.

This table lists our OO Corp:

WOØA Norb Bierschbach 29719 Gerlach Way
Cannon Falls, MN  55009-9228
KØOX Erik Bonde 923 Anabec St

It's important to remember that our OO Corp are listeners.  We listen around the bands for whatever time we can spend.  We listen for things that can be improved.  We are not the Ham Band Police !!  When we find something, we report it to the OOC and then a decision is made on the appropriate action to be taken.  For irregular operation, usually a simple notification is appropriate.  For outright and repeated rule violations, we will use caution and work the ARRL to decide what to do.  The step of FCC notification is a serious step that needs careful consideration.

If you wish to be an OO, please contact John as W3FAF@arrl.net
