[AK-VHF] NET June 14 - 144.200 & 146.52

[Ed Cole]

Net Report for June 21:
144.200 SSB
KL6M - S3
WL7BER - S0
KL7XJ - S8

146.52
Frequency in use for SOTA operation so net moved back to 144.200 and 
used FM instead of SSB.

144.200 FM:
KL7XJ - S9
KL6M - S4
KL3WF by relay

223.50:
KL7XJ - 2bar

Using 144.200 for both SSB and FM worked well so I think this will 
become standard for future nets.

Net Report for June 14:
144.200
KL7JHR - S9
KL7XJ - S5
KL5PJ - S9+3dB
KL6M -

At 10:00am ARRL VHF Contest began so net was closed.
Worked three stations on 2m for two grids
and six stations on 6m-FT8 for four grids
Heard Tuscon, AZ for brief opening on 6m (did not work them)
