[ILHam] NSRC 2-meter net Thursday

[MFGardner at aol.com]

The North Shore Radio Club net March 30 at 8:00 p.m. CST will only be on the 
club's two meter repeater (147.345 MHz, +600 Hz, PL 107.2 Hz) 

In addition to local traffic, and John Wass with the local hamfest and 
American Radio Relay League (ARRL) news, this week's net will include the RAIN 
Report and Amateur Radio Newsline. The RAIN Report is "Riley Hollingsworth - 2006 
Special Achievement Award." The Dayton Hamvention has named Riley 
Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, the 2006 Special Achievement award winner. Riley has earned  a 
reputation as a no nonsense yet classy Special Counsel for the Federal 
Communications Commission. In honor of his long-overdue award, RAIN flashes back to an 
excerpt from his FCC presentation delivered before an SRO forum at the 2001 Dayton 
Hamvention in suburban Dayton, Ohio.

Amateur Radio Newsline reports that scientists find a new way to forecast 
sunspots 
and that could be good news for D-X'ers. Also, the FCC says that ham radio 
won't move to the new Homeland Security Bureau and Canada's national ham 
radio society may seek a new entry level class of license. 

All licensed amateurs are welcome to check in. Check-ins are taken by net
control Mark, WA9IVH, at the beginning of the net, between RAIN and Newsline, 

and after Newsline.
