[CW] MAC - Slow Speed Code Net

[Mike D.]

MAC Slow Speed Code Net

Next Net:
Wednesday, October 9, 2002
Time:  7:00 P.M. (local)
Frequency:  +/- 7.138 MHz
Net Control: Philip, K9PL

**HERE'S WHY WE DO THE NET**
Are you interested in improving your code skills? Metro Amateur Radio Club
(MAC) would like to be of assistance. Three times a month we provide
on-the-air practice. You don't have to be a MAC member to participate.

**THIS IS THE NET SCHEDULE**
The net operates on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Wednesday of the month at 7:00 P.M.
local (currently 2400 Z, Wednesday). We meet on 7.138 MHz (plus or minus
QRM). Listen for CQ MAC and then send your callsign at YOUR speed. The net
will QRS (slow down) to the speed of the slowest op.

**WE KEEP IT SIMPLE**
We don't use any special net protocol to keep things simple. Although this
net was developed to help Chicago area hams, we encourage out of state
check-ins. If you are a FISTS member, feel free to exchange numbers
with other participants. http://www.fists.org

**QUESTIONS**
If you have any questions, please let us know via e-mail at
[mailto:mac@qsl.net]

**THE AFTER NET** (You don't have to be in the code net to participate in
the After Net.)
After the net, please join us for an informal roundtable discussion on the
MAC repeater (Niles, IL). 147.315 MHz (+600 offset, No PL).

**DONUTS** (Woo Hoo!)
All check-ins can redeem special DONUT QSL (Mmmmmm donuts, is there anything
they can't do?) at the next MAC meeting on November 6, 2002. If you missed
the last meeting... you missed Krispy Kreme donuts!

**COME TO OUR CLUB MEETING** (We have donuts.)
