[AK-VHF] NET Saturday - 9am FM&SSB

[Edward R Cole]

Last weekend we tried starting the net on 146.52 FM to accommodate 
stations with only FM radios; then switched to 144.200 USB per the 
normal schedule for the remainder of the net.  We picked up two 
FM-only stations.

So we are going to repeat this approach on tomorrow's net (which 
normally would be held on SSB).

I will take check-in's on 146.52 FM for about ten minutes (longer if 
there a lot of stations).
Then the net will switch to 144.200 USB and pick up anyone not 
checking in on FM (some stations in Anchorage have difficulty hearing 
me on FM may want to wait till the switch to SSB).

I can get only 100w on FM whereas I run 150w on SSB.

We will continue with FM nets on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of the Month, se
