[Elecraft] A K3 SSB net?

[Kevin Rock]

   There was an Elecraft SSB Net.  While trying to make contact with the NCS I finally tried CW and met a few other Elecraft operators.  Not too many weeks later I started ECN.  I am not sure what happened to the folks who started the voice net but propagation was going downward at that time.  You may want to look in the Reflector archives around April or May of 2003.  ECN started on June 7th, 2003 with VE1RGB, W0CZ, & N5IB checking in to the first session.  Maybe N5IB remembers the voice net details better than I have.
