[MRCG] MRCG news roundup - Events, Clatternet, Etc

[boatanchor at martasystems.com]

I'd lug it up there again if there is interest. Mark may have hit on it, if 
done as a special events station - even during the day - we could advertise 
early and maybe get some folks that don't normally pay attention to MRCG. 
Same for the AM net or maybe SSB - 20 meters?

A Clatternet setup would be fun - and easy for a PRC-47 or similar portable
setup, but you get THE award for lugging your GRC-46 setup to SLO last
time...Holy Cats!
Since most Clatternet and potential future Clatternet types would likely be
at SLO anyway, no one to talk to probably.  Maybe we can get KSM to send us
some crypto again - I don't think they can receive RATT however...dunno...
Ditto for the Saturday AM nite as Mark pointed out.  Unless we want to try
to break the 3870 Mainline AM  broadcast transmitter net with only a few
hundred watts!    Good luck with that!  LOL

Maybe set up a Net Control station on the Bar at Jocko's on Friday
nite.....(most MRCG'ers are back home Saturday afternoon....)
