Ummm ... I doubt that 10 mins per net is enough. I only make Kevin's 20
m net a couple of times a year, 20 is gang busters into KL7/VE7 at net
time, seriously not so much between N. NV and N. OR ... sometimes barely
readable. A 2100 or 2200 UTC net out of CO would be perfect for me 😜
The current 40 m net is about dinner time here in NV.

>If you have ever dreamed of running a directed CW net now is your chance to audition for your new role. The Elecraft CW Nets need NCS operators while I am out of action.

>Multiple nets across the continent would work well, as they have in the past. I am proposing running an East, Central, and West set of nets on 20 and 40 meters. I don't think running them simultaneously is best, a 10 or 15 minute offset may be better. Start out East at the top of the hour and switch to Central 10 minutes later. Finally switch to West at 20 minutes after the hour. Offset timing will change with experience and as the bands change.

>The forty meter nets might run simultaneously; the band is pretty local at this time of day.

>Please coordinate your audition with either or both:
