A year ago I said I would have a Verizon iPhone on day one and when it came I thought I really did not care.   I had been packing a Sprint EVO for about 2 weeks on a awesome Sprint SERO deal and figured that was it.

Well it’s time for the annual pilgrimage to Denver for ChaserCon! Unfortunately some friends wont make it this year but others will (and new ones I am sure too!)

Seems like we have been here before but it’s different this time… really Two years ago there was another story when we tried to “give...

Well it was bound to happen… someone has compiled a list of naughty chasers based on Spotter Network information.  I am not going to support the site with a link so if you know where it is GREAT.

Almost as infamous as “Lightbar Threads” on StormTrack I give you Scott’s Guide on data cards. I am going to break this down into a couple different types of users and I am also going to make some assumptions… You only need a data card for chasing and not the rest of the year. You chase ALL of Tornado alley, not just the south or the...

So I had this battle plan to write about using Ham radio and chasing… while researching this Jesse Risley told me he already wrote one on the Convective Addiction site…. you can find it here. My additions to this… If your just going to use a HAM radio for chasing and not get into all the other stuff don’t go spend a fortune on your...
