This net has been going on for some time, since last summer if I recall correctly, but I wasn't able to check into it until sometime around Christmas due to lack of a suitable 6M antenna. It wasn't until a couple of weeks ago when I put up my Arrow Antenna GP52 that I was really able to get in to the net, and … yes, I've been bad … just last week I finally got my ground rod driven and my coax actually, you know, grounded before it comes into the house — with the result that I'm very nearly full quieting into the 6M repeaters around here.
At any rate, I felt like someone probably ought to be keeping notes for this net, which by the way is run by Tom N9CXI. I'm sort of hoping that if there is something on the 'Net about the net, more folks in the Central Indiana area may try dusting off their 6 meter equipment and tuning into it. The net meets Thursdays at 7:30 PM ET, usually on the 52.700 K9IPL repeater, and all are welcome to check in.
Tonight's net had to QSY to the 53.010 K9TNW repeater due to a technical glitch. Since the net started late, there was no question propounded as is normal for this net, but the following check-ins were heard:
| N9 | CXI | Tom |
| N9 | DOO | Don |
| WA9 | FDO | Mike |
| WD9 | JCE | James |
| K9 | JWP | Jim |
| N9 | QVO | David |
| W9 | SOX | Matthew |
| KC9 | YTJ | Nathan |
Net control was Tom, N9CXI, and the net ran from 19:39 ET to 19:44 ET. Thanks to Mike, WA9FDO, for his work with the K9IPL repeaters on which we normally meet, and Don, N9DOO, for keeping the K9TNW repeater on the air.
If you have 6 meter equipment, why not dust it off and give us a listen next week?
