Announcements
Notes from KG6SJT:
1. Thank you Ken, K6WLS and Bob, KI6BZ for working on and fixing the repeater today!!
2. We had an AEC meeting on Sat. and we developed a list of projects, activities, and trainings that we would like to do this year. You will be learning more about these ideas in the coming weeks. Thank you Ken, Wes, Lavonne, and Gary.
3. A change in the Net control Script.
In the past we have announced the net, 30, 15, 10 minutes before the net. We have changed that to 10 minutes and 5 minutes before our net. The online scripts have been changed.
4. We have started a Monday night ARES packet net. It is an experiment, and hopefully, everyone will have the opportunity to check out the portable packet station, learn how packet works and check in.
This evening, we have had 6 check-ins: KG6SJT, K6WLS, K7DWO, KI6BZR, N6KIX, W6KJX.
This was a good start. We will repeat the packet net next Monday.
