[MarinTeams] Happy Thanksgiving!

Fri Nov 25 16:07:36 EST 2016

I agree with Joe.  As another vet, I have to ask whether anyone made contact
with the stations discussing their Vietnam service and got a response?   If
no contact was made, it is possible they were using the same frequency a
long(?) way away, but were unable to hear the Marin Teams net.   I mention
this because occasionally I've been able to hear traffic from other nets as
well as simplex conversations more than once that have drifted in from Santa
Clara, San Francisco, Concord and even the Sierra foothills.   They couldn't
hear me, but their signal was audible. 

Thanks,
Skip Fedanzo

Your right!  I think I heard  you check in, and so you may of heard the
discussion between two Vietnam Veterans about their Vietnam tours.  I don't
want to speak for them, but the topic wasn't really relevant to our drill.
But had it been during a "Free Net" protocol I suppose it would have been
appropriate.  That's all I meant.
