> It has been discussed about moving to other channels on the
> up-coming 2m simplex net, so that we could see if there is any
> difference in signal strength on something other than our normal channel
> - that said, I have done some looking into what frequencies that we
> could use that won't bother too many people if we show up to do radio
> checks, and I have come up with this plan -
>
> Starting on 146.460 with the regular net, after the first round,
> anyone that is interested in moving around to various channels is
> welcome to do so - as we show up on a new frequency, allow me to check
> to see if that channel is in use, and then I will do a roll call of the
> parties that are involved, and we will exchange signal reports - then on
> to the next frequency and follow that same method. This may show some
> anomalies as our RF signals may change according to frequency.

> I suspect that signals will change a small amount, depending on how

> frequencies involved - this could be an understatement, too, so this is
> why we will try this experiment and we'll all see what develops.

> The channels will be as follows -

> 146.460
>
> 144.500
>
> 145.500
>
> 147.500
>
> IF, you plan on being involved, please set your radio into VFO mode
> so that you can roll to the frequencies needed, or pre-program these
> into memory channels (the VFO mode would probably be the better choice,
> as I assume we won't use these other channels at any other time) and we
> all should be set to go.

> If someone would care to forward this onto the club social media,
