   K8TQK has moved his net up 2 kc to get clear of a new noise 
source in his area.  Until further notice, K8TQK calls his Wed. 
net on 144.252.  Please help spread the word.  Bob starts at 
0030Z, or 7:30pm central.  QTH is EM89je, south-central OH.  
   Starts out looking north, then moves clockwise a full 360 over 
the next hour or so.  Our net controls enjoy DX check-ins so if 
you're out there in deep fringe territory, give a listen and see 
how propagation is.  


   A "sure-thing" alternative for VHF'ers in NLRS-land ...
   WB9LYH has the 144.240 net tonight, from EN54cl.  This 
is right in the middle of WI.  This net starts at 0000Z, or 7pm 
central.  Pattern is to look NE at the start, then go clockwise 
over the next hour or so.  WB9LYH has stacked 17B2's and 
500w from a ridgetop location.   Mark also enjoys DX so help 
spread the word.   

    *PLEASE NOTE THAT STARTING APRIL 11TH, THE 
144.240 NET (only 144.240) WILL START ONE HOUR 
LATER, AT 0100Z or 8PM CENTRAL.*   This time change 
will remain in effect until at least early October.  We do this 
because during longer days and nicer weather, many hams are 
not at the rigs in the early evening.  We can also find better 
propagation with a later start time.  

    I will be net control with the 144.240 net on both April 4 
and April 11th.  I pinch-hit when WB9LYH is not available.  

    Thanks for the bandwidth, 73,
