Tonight’s SMCARA Net

[Jim Forest]

CQ, CQ, CQ, This is a reminder of the weekly net taking place this evening at 1930 on the 146.640 (PL: 146.2) repeater. we also now have an Echolink node up and running, the node is: K3HKI-R, #: 559056.

The topic for tonight, is Grounding your station and antenna system. How about your mobile system bonding/grounds? What have you done to provide a ground for your station equipment? What can you do to improve your setup?
I just began a ground rod installation which requires me to drill 5/8” hole through 10” of concrete outside the basement near my shack.
Hopefully this will lower my noise on receive and prevent RF from distorting my audio.

Hope to hear you on the net tonight. 73.
