[Hallicrafters] Join Saturday Halli 40M Net While You Can

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

I retired as the NCS of the Saturday Hallicrafters 40 meter Net over a year 
ago. Offering to stay on as 'temporary' NCS until one of "YOU" came forward 
to occupy my official NCS chair. Fully expecting that one of you would do 
so. Thus far it has not happened. But it needs to!

So enjoy the Saturday 40 meter HHI Net while you can, as unless one of you 
assume the duty of NCS, there will not be one much longer.

The Pre-Net will commence at 12:30 PM EST/EDT, (1630 UTC). The HHI Net 
proper leaps toward the Ionosphere at 1:00 PM EST/EDT, (1700 UTC). The 
frequency, shall be 7.280 MHZ lsb +/- for key clicks, mike splatter and 
relay chatter since the blind dude grabbed the wrong can of contact cleaner 
and gave the HF amplifier TR relay a shot of NASCAR carb air flow screw jet 
"It Ain't Graphite And An Ill Eagle!" lubricant! It is more slick than a 
greased Pig smeared with slightly rancid Whale blubber, rubbed down with 
that spray on anti stick stuff for a cast iron skillet and quick dipped in 
that French skin cream that lets those girls on the beach get into and out 
of a bikini faster then an IRS agent can yell "AUDIT!" when your 1040 is 
filled out with a Crayola crayon! Ever heard a used cars sales artist 
slightly buzzed on stimulants doing his sales pitch like a 16 2/3 rpm vinyl 
record being played at 45 rpm? Well that is how my TR relay is operating! 
Hopefully before the Net tomorrow I can slow it down some by hanging all 
these heavy old Lead fishing sinkers I found in an old tackle box on those 
two little springs that control the relay contacts tension level.

Sink or swim, I'll be there, so you be there too! Keep that pedal to the 
metal dude! Let that glow grow and let's roast some rice!
