Thanks. Gab is extremely slow right now. I read an article earlier today that they are struggling to scale up as they are getting tons of new members. I hope they can weather THE STORM.

The DMR talk group was up and running when ARF went down. Get in on the net. :-)
I've been liking MEWE. Wish ARF would set up a page there. |

Quoted: https://gab.com/groups/13389https://gab.com/groups/13389 It might not open if you don't have a Gab account. Try it anyway. If it doesn't open go to groups>technology>Ham radios Just an FYI: We have a quite active ARFCOM HAM RADIO channel on ZELLO. It's proven to be a very stable platform. Doesn't cost anything. No commercials. It's moderated to keep trolls out. You can post pictures, links etc. It takes very little bandwidth. I've used it in places with very poor phone coverage. It just works. Zello is a free "walkie-talkie" app for both Android and Apple. Very intuitive and easy to use. No complicated setup procedures. No ham license required. Most of the time, there are 8-10 members on the channel. Check it out. |

I could set us up a signal group with link invite if there was any interest. |

I am sure that once Gab gets up and running and investing loads of capital, a collaborative effort with tech infrastructure companies will blacklist the IP from root routers in the country.

Actually the Big Tech people are getting too big for their britches and it won't be long before they get greedier and bite the hand that feed them. The Big Shots will declare them to not be useful idiots anymore and they will get slapped down. |

lol...
In the past week I've started monitoring mewe more closely, and set up telegram, signal, discord, and a few others that escape me at the moment. Time to add another one to the list. lol... |

Sounds like my 2 phones are arguing with each other.

Can't get it to work for me. I go through the sign-up process, and then it just hangs up. Tried several times, with no joy.

We have a nice friendly group here, and if this forum goes down, about all that's left in the ham radio world, is QRZ. And there are way too many self-righteous donkeys on that forum.

Quote HistoryQuoted: screw big commie tech I’ll catch you guys on HF This is my plan if ARF goes down. I almost never to F2F but I'd imagine I'd find some local hams and do a little of that as well. |

Of course you can text on Zello. This is what we do half the time. You can also attach pictures, links, etc. The app is very stable. It works even in areas with poor cellphone coverage, where internet is slow like molasses. |

Can someone confirm the name of the Zello ARFCOM Ham Group or send me an invite? The only thing that comes up when I search for groups is "Arfcom" with 6 members besides myself. My username on Zello is the same as here. If you need my email or telephone number please PM me. Thanks!
