We're working on that also... some folks have antenna or location issues
to over come. However you did have 4 or 5 of the ZEC or A-SEC on the net
yesterday and a few more EC and DEC.

We did discuss the net all at the meeting Saturday. #1 issue was the
day/time Sunday @ 430p (or 330P). But did not really get a strong
suggestion as what what date and time would work better to get more
leaders on... someting more to talk about and being hams... we can talks a
while :)

One suggestion was to maybe change the net format a bit, have the ARESOK
leaders at the top of the role. And when called for instead of NCS asking
for "Mark N7XYO in Okmulgee"  suggest something like "Mark Conklin N7XYO
Zone EC, Zone 4&5 in Okmulgee" yeah it's longer but from folks that
listen... it helps them know who's who.  Also if someone is a DEC or EC
their that should  mentioned be the NCS when they check in also.

But Rome was not built in a day... and I am guilty on missing the net also
- Sunday afternoon (or during "office hours" )is tough.

Mark 
  This is a MOSFET Power transistor.  It is not stocked by DigiKey, Mouser, or any of the common suppliers.  However, Avnet and Arrow Electronics are ST distributors.  You might get stuck with a minimum, but you may also be able to get one "sampled" to you.  If all else fails you might call ST, they have an office in the Dallas area, and you might get one thru them.  This  however is a telephone gauntlet.  Let me know otherwise and I might be able to bluff sone of the aformentioned into giving me one.  EE's can usually get free parts like this.

Riley Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, Special Counsel in the FCC's
Enforcement Bureau, announced his retirement this week,
effective Thursday, January 3, 2008.

While his successor has not been named, Hollingsworth was
quick to point out that the FCC's Amateur Radio enforcement
program will continue.

Hollingsworth told the ARRL: "After about a year of thinking
about the 'if not now, when?' question, I decided to retire
January 3.  I love working for the FCC and I've always had
great jobs, but this one involving the Amateur Radio Service
has been the most fun and I have enjoyed every day of it."

He continues, "For nine years I've worked with the best group
of licensees on earth, enjoyed your support and tremendous FCC
support and looked forward every day to coming to work.  The
Amateur Radio enforcement program will continue without missing
a beat, and after retirement I look forward to being involved
with Amateur Radio every way I can.  I thank all of you for
being so dedicated and conscientious, and for the encouragement
you give us every day."

ARLB024 Hollingsworth to Stay Put at FCC

Riley Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, Special Counsel for the FCC's
Enforcement Bureau, has decided not to retire.  He had
announced last week that he would leave the FCC in January
2008.

Riley states, "After spending the entire weekend thinking
about the decision [to retire], it became more and more
clear to me that it just isn't the right decision for me
right now.  There are several issues on the table that I
want to continue to work through with the amateur community."

The Enforcement Bureau is the primary organizational unit
within the Federal Communications Commission that is
responsible for enforcement of provisions of the Communications
Act, the Commission's rules, Commission orders and terms and
conditions of station authorizations, as well as enforcement
of Amateur Radio rules (Part 97).
