[NLRS] Three Long-Range 2m Net Options This Week

[Todd Sprinkmann]

    This Wed. we have WB9LYH on 144.240 from EN54cl, 
or the middle of WI, starting at 0100Z, or 7pm central.  Mark 
starts out looking northeast and then goes clockwise from there, 
a full 360, over the next 60-90 minutes.  
    Remember that KA0KYZ in EN33 is now starting at 0300Z 
or 9pm central every Wednesday.  Terry's on 144.230, starts 
out looking east and moves clockwise from there.  Make sure 
to tell any night owls you know that there'll be late-night 2m 
fun now at least once per week.   
     Also remember that KA0KYZ is in that ON4KST.com chat.  
The chat room celebrates its one-year anniversary March 11th.

    Our 3rd net option might be a longshot for a lot of you on 
this particular email list (I send email in 15-18 different directions 
every week).  All the same, I want you to know that K8TQK 
from EM89je is back on with his 144.250 net, starting at 0130Z, 
or 7:30pm central time.  Bob starts out looking north and then 
goes clockwise from there.   He has a huge signal from his 
southern Ohio QTH; everyone within 300-500 miles of him is 
fair game.  

     If nets don't interest you, I hope you will enjoy the increased 
activity on 2m anyway.  We encourage our check-ins to slide 
down to 144.220 and lower, and do their own CQ'ing.  Why 
limit yourself to a short check-in with net control?  There are 
dozens of guys on the air Wed. nights, so enjoy the activity.  
The whole reason we do these nets and these promotional emails 
is to increase V/UHF activity levels.  

     I've made several posts to kc9bqa.com lately.  More info 
about other Midwest radio activity is there, including the WI QSO 
Party on March 13th, plus the Spring VHF Sprints kicking off on 
Monday, April 11th.  Think of kc9bqa.com as the VHF/UHF 
newspaper.  Read the paper a few times a week and you're up 
to speed.
