Tune us in on Sunday March 1st and keep those wonders that still go glow in
the dark going and glowing. Exercise: waist not, watt not!

The Pre-Net commences at 12:45 PM EST, 1745 UTC. The HHI Net proper kicks
off at the right takeoff angle at 1:15 PM EST, 1815 UTC. If you can not tell
time, find a grandchild to help! They know everything. But "if" you really
want to know everything, ask any teenager!

The frequency, like it ever changes? Is 14.293 MHZ usb +/- for key clicks,
mike splatter and bi-directional splatter in the language of your choice.
But tune between 14.292 MHZ and 14.293 MHZ, as we are somewhere in there!

Now if you have tuned in and heard only somebody shouting CQ Contest,
speaking in a foreign tongue, intense QRM that not even the Collins 390A can
eliminate, but not the HHI NCS, do not give up! I am there, somewhere!

What I really need is somebody in my immediate proximity to volunteer to
come over and fix this ailing AL-82a HF amp that has been doing an arc thing
since Thanksgiving Eve! Then I would have another thousand watts to punch
through the adjacent hash and maybe some of you could hear me!

Yes, I am serious. The amp needs a Ham doctor with healing hands!

Here is hoping to hear many of you tomorrow! Had a great group today on
forty meters! Still had the fickle 300 mile radius Zone Of Deaf, but W5JT,
Jim, near Louisville, KY could relay. So we had fun for a change. Thanks for
all of you who braved the drought of propagation and showed up to brave the
sun spot blight.
