[Todd Sprinkmann]

Nets were a little bit quiet tonight, but still very 
worthwhile.

   WA9FWT -- Phil EN63 Sheboygan       5x9 (vertical) 
   KC9IGB -- Butch EN54 Chilton        5x9 (M2 omni loop) 
   K0KFC -- Jim EN35 St. Croix Falls   5x0 
   Both Phil and Butch have 144 beams that they hope 
to get up soon. 

   144.250 check-ins were: 
   N9WU -- Rick EN53 Germantown              5x2

   QST:  K9IJ is making rotor and mast improvements 
on his 432 and 1296 equipment for the ARRL contest 
on Sept. 13-14. 

   W9IPR mentioned the Ozaukee Radio Club fall 
swapfest.  It's this Saturday and here's a link 
to a flyer in pdf format:

   If you ever need a download to read pdf files, 
the one I use is available by googling foxit reader. 

   Several of us ragchewed for a time after the 
net closed up, and we all agree we can't wait for 
the forecasted rain that (ex) Hurricane Gustav is 
supposed to deliver tomorrow.
