   222 Tuesday is tonight, for everyone across the USA.  
It's a general activity night, like Tuesday used to be for 222.  
Get on/near 222.100 SSB and 223.500 FM.   Call CQ 
plenty, swing beams, look around.   Do this from roughly 
0000-0300Z.   Spread the word in your area.   This only 
works well if many get on from various regions.

    Consider using this chat to better keep track of activity 
in various areas:   www.on4kst.com.   This is the same free, 
no-obligation chat 1000's of 6 meter guys have been using for 
years.   It's time to put it to use on 144, 222 and 432.   If you 
check into the 144/432 MHz room at www.on4kst.com 
tonight, you will immediately see dozens of callsigns and grid 
squares on the right.     

     Singing up is so simple, even I can do it.   I have the 7 
steps listed at http://kc9bqa.com/?p=1072

     I don't know if we have many subs to this list from the 
Dakotas, Nebraska, or Kansas,  but if you're out there and 
you want some activity on 144 MHz on Wed. nights, we're 
looking for you, starting tomorrow night.   We will have relay 
stations from EM29 and EN22 looking SW, W and NW to 
find you and work you.  Email me and I'll be happy to get you 
involved via weekly reminders.  Or check out the website.   
This radio stuff works much better if you promote it.   

    Everyone enjoy 222 Tuesday tonight.   I should be in the 
chat room about 0000Z.    I am also always in the chat on 
Wed. nights in conjunction with our 144 SSB nets we call 
from WI.   We had 25 VHF'ers stop by last Wed. and it 
really helped coordinate the 144 activity across a wide region.
