Attn Troops,
Anyone interested - - - several of us  will be on the push of  3.685 
at approx 2230 hours  plus or minus  tonight (Sunday evening 4 MAR) , 
back up push will be 3.675.
Primary purpose of  this informal  2230 hour get together  is to try 
out the military AM rigs on  the "low end" of  75 meters  at 3.685 and 
check band conditions, and do some quick signal checks.


Make transmissions short please so stations can break in.

 If you don't have AM with carrier try SSB or CW and say hello. 
:-)

I will not be checking into the CW net at 2100, so could someone let 
Ted know during the CW Net.

Tonight (4 March) is also the introduction of new Ch 3 frequency  and 
introduction of additional modes  for 60 meters.

 Warren K2ORS has suggested that we meet on the old channel 3(dial 
5.3665) prior to midnight and then switch over to the new channel 3 
(5357.0 kHz)  at 0001 EST and try it out to include CW.

Please refer to the ARRL link at the bottom, CW must be on the "center 
frequency" of 5358.5.


 I suspect that the  new channel 3 may be busy so we can  use Ch 4 
5371.5 kHz the Moose and Squirrel frequency as a back up.

Anyone confused yet?

Please review the ARRL notes on Ch 3 and CW operations at:
