[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] October Net Control Solicitations and News You Can Use

[Bryan Pettigrew]

CQ Everyone-

I'm back from my whirlwind trip to Germany for the week!  And I've returned
to see that we still haven't filled all of our net slots for October.
Here's the lineup thus far:

DSTAR Wednesday:  All month N8IK
2m Thursday:  2 (KQ4YGT), 9, 16, 23 (WA6MPR) and 30 October

Also, there have been no takers for a Special Net on HF or 6 meters for
next month.  So if there's interest, please send me an email and if there's
enough folks who want it, I'll schedule it!

So sign up for a net... especially you newly minted net controllers!
Otherwise you're going to turn your radio on at 2000 and hear nothing but
dead air... and that has happened recently!

73 and we'll see you down the log!
