SideBanders,

Pasted below are some added tips from Paul W0RW.
I'm relaying the "bulletin" and hoping to include some ops from those 2m AM
days.

I expect to be portable on Sunday evening.

I also expect to be portable tonight for the sideband net, pretty high up
and pretty far north.
In case you can't hear me, would somebody please share all of this info?

"Your 2 Meter AM net control is at the foot of Pikes Peak so that would be
a good direction to point your beam.
Vertical Polarization will be best.
Audio checks starting at 6:30 pm. Sunday night.
If you want to check in using an FM only radio, we might be able to hear
you using slope detection, Tune your FM radio to 145.555 MHz."
