Ok, this is how this works, you make a post, when you are online, you edit it to say so, and what frequency.
When you are off, edit it to say offline. Call signs are optional, most of us know each other's anyway. If we all pitch in we could have a nice easy way to spot each other. Ill start: Offline |

Yeah, it was. Too bad you couldn't hear the guy in CT with 5w. That was fun, and you sounded better than any time in the past. A good 2 S units better.
The guy from FL was talking to someone else when I left. Edit: The guy with the KX3 was surprised my radio had a CW decoder and a tuner built in for less than a third of the cost of his radio alone. |

7.200 and 14.313 are the international tuning nets.
I.e. Sesame Street. Mental midget VE3KFM's favorite frequency. Occasionally I'll tune in for lulz. It ranges from mindless banter to hard core graphic discussions or even outright calls for rape, murder, arson, and rape.

I've been trying to work a little more on the radios lately doing mostly FT8.
I only need Hawaii to get my WAS, I am on the east coast and never see any Hawaii stations on at the usual times I am up and about. What is a good time to catch a station from Hawaii ? I've tried kicking around on the bands 10, 15, 20, 40, I use PSK Reporter to check my propagation and have made contacts in Japan and Australia . I also use grid tracker |

I also use grid tracker I've had one morning contact but the rest were 1900-0300z. 4 on phone with hamsticks, four 20m FT8. KH6WI formerly KD9TEZ is probably one of the most active since he does POTA so watch for his spots. |
