Subject: [ETS/PARC List] Proposed Friday Night Tech Net

      Members;

 Listening to the WIN system on an IRLP repeater a while back and came
across this segment they have called the Tech Net on Friday nights on this
system.I think its really good.The WIN system is bridged to Allstar making
easy access to link up.

     This net is hosted by "Shorty" K6JSI who is really great at running
this net. It is open to all that wish to ask him something pertaining to Ham
Radio and he can answer the basic questions or on the most advanced
subjects. No, he's not a Gordon West or the ultimate foremost authority in
Ham Radio, but knowledgeable and holds his own. I have listened to other
tech nets through the years and most of them are very self contained and not
into outsiders being involved in some cases.Not so here.

      I'm proposing to the membership to air the Tech Net on our 2 meter
repeater on Friday nights on a temporary trial basis to see what the general
consensus is for this net.This net would air 22:00 hrs on Friday night and
would last for just an hour. Yes...the hour is kind of late, but we are
talking West coast time. At the end of the net, the 2 meter repeater will be
disconnected and returned to normal local amateur use with sleep mode
enabled at midnight and available for use at 0400.

     Should an emergency happen during this special net broadcast,  the
repeater will be disconnected and available for anything else that may
require disconnection.

     Just looking for ways to make our club/hobby more interesting(Not that
its not)The Sunday night social net in tandem with this proposed Friday
night net special, may be a good fit. If it is, we could keep it as a
regular program. If not, we can drop it,Not my decision to make.Website is
what this network is all about
