Yo Homo Sapien Carbon Base Lifeforms!

It is I, Frogzilla! Live and in the hide, AKA to you sun bathers as the
'flesh'. Tomorrow is Sunday April 20th and time for the HHI 20 meter Net
live from the backyard pond that some blind dude named Fischer made famous
when he imagined me into existance. So light those wonders that still go
glow in the dark, without a coat of Radium paint, and drift on by the
frequency and say "Hey!".

The Pre-Net, you know, like what comes before the real thing? It kicks off
at 12:45 PM EST/EDT, (1645 UTC). Provided there is any propagation to
promulgate!

For the Meteorologically challenged among you: The Ionosphere is a series of
layers starting about 50 Km, 30 miles, and extending beyond 400 Km,
250miles. It is composed of  ionized rarified atmospheric gases from
incident solar radiation. Simply put, if the Sun does not belch out a solar
flare and give the old Ionosphere a jolt of juice, there is no propagation
and HF signals croak before they ever have a chance to get a deep voice!

The Net proper commences at 1:15 PM EST/EDT, (1715 UTC).

The frequency is 14.293 MHZ usb +/- for key clicks, mike splatter and
probably QRM from the MI QSO Party this weekend! So look for the Net
somewhere from 14.292 up to, and including, 14.293 MHZ.

The blind dude hopes to hear you tomorrow. So be there or be a square wave!
