Radio Hams keep eye out for thieves
The Cassville Democrat newspaper reports that ham radio operators are helping keep an eye out for the thieves.
They say:
Members of the Barry-Lawrence Chapter of Crime Stoppers are joining forces with ham radio operators in Barry and Lawrence counties to help keep an eye out for the thieves who have been stealing and burning vehicles from both counties.
Katherine Parker, KD0ETX, assistant district emergency coordinator for both Barry and Lawrence county ham radio organizations, said that general warnings could be issued to operators across both counties to be aware of the situation and report suspicious activities occurring in their neighborhoods.
"We can issue public service announcements," Parker said. "Once the information is out there in scanner-land, it will be easy to call back to local law enforcement with information."
