Tomorrow's plan

20 meters at 2300z Sunday (3 PM PST Sunday) on 14050 kHz or there abouts.

40 meters at 0300z Monday (7 PM PST Sunday) on 7045 kHz or down (I need to avoid
an SSB net north of the border).

The plan to trade serial numbers and rig types has passed the committee and is going
to be used during this weekend's nets.  Once either I or another NCS (most likely N0SS)
establish contact with you we will ask for a bit more than the usual name and state. 
Please send your name and state if asked but also your rig type and serial number. 
Then I'll post the information on the Reflector in my normal net report format after the
net.  It will make things a bit more interesting for all of us.  For Tom and I, we'll have to
dig a bit deeper and may just ask for a few more fills to get those numbers correct.  For
your part you get to send a bit more and participate a bit longer.  Copy as many of the
serial numbers as you can and you'll be eligible for one of the Elecraft WAS or century
club awards. 

Please call the net from your location if called upon.  It does help us have a little more
fun by spreading out the work load.

Just call CQ CQ ECN DE (your call) QNI QTC ? K
If they come back with QRU ask for their name and state plus serial number and rig
type.

If they come back with QTC XXXX move them up or down at your discretion to make
their contact with XXXX.

When you're done relay the QNS (list of call signs) with names, states, serial numbers,
and rig types back to me (KD5ONS) through whichever route necessary (email if
nothing else).  Then I will post our results.

14050 kHz (or near) at 2300z Sunday (3 PM PST)  and
7045 kHz (or down) at 0300z Monday (7 PM PST Sunday).

Thanks folks and see you on the net,
    73,
         Kevin.   (Net Control Operator 5th Class).

There is a station from the Marshall Islands who wishes to participate in our group.  
Jeff V73GJ wants to see if any of you are interested in a contact from him.  If we get 
him checked in I'll move him off frequency and if anyone wants I'll direct them to that 
frequency to meet Jeff.  He also wants to know if anyone is interested in a sked on 15 
meters one day.  I'll relay the information to him if you wish.  He runs a K2 with a beam 
so I have a shot at hearing him.  Now if the propagation gets better we'll do fine.
