[NLRS] 144 SSB nets *ON* tonight + real-time chat now in use

[Todd Sprinkmann]

   Two net options now every Wednesday.  Also read about 
the nifty chat feature we're using.  
    
    If you want to hear a loud signal from EN54, Wood Co., 
near Wis. Rapids, then the 144.240 net with WB9LYH is at 
7:15pm.   If Mark is ever unable to make it, I will pick it up.     
    At 8:30pm on 144.250, I call the Badger Contesters net.   
All are welcome.  The purpose of these nets or activity periods 
is to stir up action on less-used portions of 2 meters.  

    I'm using a great chat page where you can keep track of the 
nets in real-time.   Any licensed amateur can sign up, and for 
those who are mildly curious, but a little hesitant to actually get 
on the air, it's a great learning opportunity to hang out in chat.  
Lurkers are welcome.   

    I have been in this chat on net nights for several weeks now 
and I'm enjoying it more and more.    Great way to coordinate 
activity between net control and stations across the compass.    
    The chat at www.on4kst.com is free, no-strings-attached.   
1000's of hams have been using it for years now.  Especially 
on 6 meters.  It's time to put it to use for the higher bands.   

    7 simple steps to get signed up are on my website at:

the air tonight.   I should be in there about 6:30-7pm.
