Good morning,
On FM, I call with a Diamond vertical up 90' and 150w.
I call from 8-8:10pm with the vertical for 1st) local SE WI
counties and then 2) for "anybody, anywhere". If you are DX,
listen for that "anybody, anywhere".
We get a list and give everyone a chance to say hello to the net.
I run the net as an individual, to stir up more activity on less-used
portions of 2 meters. All are welcome, please spread the word.
I also have a 10 element vertical beam up 75'. I can get out
100-200 miles with that IF I know where to point it. If you're
DX and would like a try after about 8:20-8:30pm, send me an
email before the net. Would love to find more simplex activity
outside of SE WI. It's good to see how far you can work.
Remember that WV9E in EN43, Onalaska has his FM Simplex
net every Thursday on 146.460, starting at 8:30pm.
If there are other simplex nets in WI, inform me about them.
73,
