Hi All

We had a banner net even though the wx was pretty  bad in Ks, Ohio and Ontario.
Yes Ontario. VE3ZV is becoming a regular on 432.110. The Chgo gang can work him on SSB but I need CW to work him at
almost 500 miles.

We do have activity on 432.110 nightly beginning about 7:30 CDST.

Here is the list;
KO0Z EM59
N9EM EN53
KA9VDU EN53
WA8MOA EN73
N9IYV 
WA9HIR
K9LQZ EM68
AB9QH
KU8Y EN63
KF8MY EN84
K0SIX EN35
KG0SJ EN22
WB0YWW EN22
W0HL EM27
KB0HNN EN25
KC9VHD
W8SOL EN71
N0TTW EN32 KRIS 13 EL AND 100 WATTS. 
KC9VHD
N0IRS EM29

Several were one way check ins and others were chatting with other guys but I missed them.
It can get chaotic at times.

Two questions;
1 Would it help speed things up if to chat with someone who just checked in with me you would move up or down 5 khz returning to 432.110 when you’re done?
2 Would it help the guys out east if I moved the net to 7:30 Central, 8:30 Eastern time?

Please give me some feedback gents.

We hit 20 check ins now let’s keep it going. I need help to speed it  up a bit. Give me your suggestions and remember we all have very sharp
arrays so telling me to do it like 40 meters taking check ins from all directions at any time. That won’t work as my 1500 watts can be copied by a small station out 250 miles no matter which way my antenna is pointed but I can’t hear the small guy if my antenna isn’t right on him.

N0TTW in EN32 is new to our group so welcome him please and let him know we have surplus 432 stuff to
share free or as close to free as possible.

Thanks all for your help in keeping the group growing.
