[AK-VHF] SPECIAL NET: Tomorrow!

[Edward R Cole]

ATTENTION

We will be holding a new net tomorrow on the 147.27 Repeater starting 
at 9am (SAT Nov. 24).
Please join us on 147.27 (+0.600 Tx with 103.5 Hz tone) which is the 
Mt. Susitna Repeater.

This will be the first net held on a repeater to promote VHF+ 
weak-signal operation.

The net will start with taking check-in's for about ten minutes.  The 
net will proceed in a roundtable format with periodic breaks to take 
more check-in's.  Stations will be encouraged to try operation on 
simplex or SSB frequencies on bands from 6m thru 1296-MHz during the 
net.  Any two stations may QSY off net frequency to attempt contact.

KL7UW, Ed, will be net control running 35w to a 9-dB vertical antenna 
in Nikiski.  Ed will be able to simultaneously monitor other 
frequencies on 6m, 2m, 222, 432, and 1296 but will not run a net on 
those frequencies. In other words no check-in will be taken on those 
other bands.

This may be the only time that this repeater will be used for the new 
net as it may be taken off Mt.Susitna very soon.  I hope many 
stations will join us tomorrow for this novel new type of net.
