[RVRC] Win System Tech net

Mon Oct 13 19:01:13 EDT 2014

I really wish this club would consider disconnecting from all the other links permanently so we could pursue our own nets and build up local activity and so our own members and associates and local hams can use the repeater we pay into or donate to. Why are we paying for repeaters we can never use because distant people on links are always tying them up?  The only linking we should be doing is linking our repeaters for nets or for members traveling and want to talk to family or us back home.

    I guess that could work.The problem I see
 is that we are linked to other systems&would the control
 operators of those systems approve?Don't want to step on
 toes.That's why the 2 meter repeater would work&is stand
 alone....Just saying...73..Pete

 To all,
 A thought occurred to me when Drew had mentioned the ''Tech
 Net'' when Eric 
 was around.   Well, in keeping with the
 desire that Eric had to generate 
 more use on 442.250, how about having that ''Tech Net'' on
 Friday but have 
 it on 442.250!  ????  It's only one hour long and
 It just may be something 
 that the network which the 442.250 repeater is linked into
 would even like 
 the idea!! ??
 As Craig pointed out, the Gent who runs that 'network' is
 extremely 
 knowledgeable and might even join in with interesting and
 educating 
 information!   Maybe??
 Optionally, the link could be disabled for the one hour!

 73,
 Marv, k2vhw
