1. WE NEED NET CONTROL STATIONS. OREGON
IS CURRENTLY RUNNING 60 PLUS NETS PER
MONTH. 3 MEMBERS ARE DOING MOST OF THE
NCS DUTIES. THIS SEEMS A LITTLE MUCH AT
TIMES.
2. MANY OF YOU ARE RELUCTANT TO BE AN ASSIGNED
NET CONTROL BECAUSE OF CHANGING WORK SHIFTS
AND/OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS. HOWEVER WITH THE NCS
SHORTAGE BEING ACUTE, WE WOULD LIKE MEMBERS TO
VOLUNTEER AND WE WILL DEAL WITH THE CONFLICTS
AS THEY COME UP. 
3. MEMBERS ARE REMINDED THAT IF THE SCHEDULED NCS
DOESN'T OPEN A NET AT 01 MINUTE PAST THE HOUR, ANY
MEMBER SHOULD OPEN THE NET. I HAVE NOTICED THAT 
SEVERAL TIMES RECENTLY, THAT IT SEEMED THAT SOME 
STATIONS WERE WAITING FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO OPEN THE NET.
4. NETS THAT DON'T HAVE AN ASSIGNED NCS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
AAM0RA/J 1701Z (10:00AM TUESDAY LOCAL)
AAA0OR/C 0001Z (5:00PM MONDAY, TUESDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY)
AAA0OR/K 0301Z (8:00PM WEDNESDAY LOCAL)
5. PLEASE CONSIDER TAKING ONE OF THESE NETS, EVEN IF
YOU HAVE DOUBTS ABOUT BEING THERE ALL OF THE TIME. IF
YOU CAN'T MAKE IT, SOMEONE WILL OPEN THE NET.
