[WIham] Long Range 2m SSB Nets ON + Updates to kc9bqa.com

[Todd Sprinkmann]

    I've posted fresh V/UHF content to kc9bqa.com.  

    There's a detailed recap of my UHF contest from last weekend.  
I put in a full effort, enjoyed about 40% of my Q's with a nice 
variety of rovers, and ended up with 40,050 claimed score in the 
SOLP category. 
    The next V/UHF contest is a big one, the ARRL September 
VHF QSO Party.  It's the weekend of September 10-11th, and 
all bands from 6m, 2m on up thru the microwaves are in play.   
Start making plans now to take advantage of the big spike in 
activity the contests bring to V/UHF bands.  


    There's also an announcement about the variety of 2m activity 
that is available every Wed. evening.  With 6 different nets to 
choose from, Wed. has to be the busiest night in the USA and 
VE-land.   Don't care for nets?  No problem.  Get on 2m anyway 
and make noise.  We encourage our check-ins and all hams to do 
this.   Please help spread the word and improve the health of our 
bands.  

   For more detail about 2m nets tonight from EL99, EM89,
EN91, EN54, EN33 and EM13 visit kc9bqa.com.  

   There are also tips there to help you get more enjoyment out of 
your time at the rigs.  The ON4KST.com real-time V/UHF chat 
room (for IARU Region 2) has done very well this spring and 
summer.  Over 2300 registered users now, plus it's free, no BS 
and it's available anytime, day or night.  If you have internet near 
your rigs, click this link http://kc9bqa.com/?p=1072 and you'll 
see the 7 simple steps for registering.  If you click this link 
http://kc9bqa.com/?p=4411 you get additional thoughts on how 
I think this chat is best used to help our bands.
