_/CQ...CQ...CQ...Announcing a New /__/ SSB Net

/_Spread the Word, Talk it up with Your Friends and Club Members.
Thursday, February 5, at 7:00 PM ET (00:00z) for the _2 METER SSB NET_
Simplex Freq. 144.250 USB
Net Control: Dan K9ZF

_The purpose for the net is:_
_
_1.  Increase 2 meter SSB activity in the Southern Indiana / Northern 
Kentucky Area, and Beyond.
2.  To give area operators a chance to test their stations and their 
capabilities.
3.  To give area SSB operators a chance to meet other active stations in 
the area.
4.  Last, but not least, TO HAVE FUN:-)

As your net control I will start the net looking north from EM78el.  
After gathering check ins from the north I will move the beam east, then 
south, then west.  Most active SSB stations will be using horizontal 
yagis, but don't let this discourage you if all you have is a vertical.  
Please give us a try with what you have!

I have a very small station here in EM78el, just east of Charlestown, 
IN.  I have 150 watts and 10 elements at 25 feet.  With my station, I 
will be depending heavily on the other stations to help relay check ins.

I don't have any ice on the antennas this week, so hopefully I will be 
able to hear a bit better.  I know there were several stations that 
tried to check in last week but I couldn't hear them.  Please don't give 
up on us, we hope to have several more stations spread around this week 
to help find everyone.

We look forward to hearing you!
