SPECIAL ADVISORY::
During the month of December the Intercon Net
has agreed to allow us to test adding an additional hour to our net
on 14.300 mHz. The Net will start at 1100 EST and continue through
to our regular closing time of 1300 EST. The objective is to
allow more USCGARC members time to check in and make comments. We
are seeking your input on format ideas for the extra hour. Please
email KE7A with suggestions. The test dates are December 7, 14, 21
and 28. If it works, we'll start off the new year as a permanent 2
hour net.
The TuneIN App for iPhone is not working at this time however, the
live audio is still available via the website link! TuneIN has been
contacted and a repair requested.
Net control for the SSB Net on December 14 will be W5CGC From Southlake, TX. The next CW
Net will be Thursday December 12 from K7ZUT in Port Angeles, WA.
