Hi Doug and All, No, 17 m isn't required to be NET free. Bonnie has made a few good points, but I note that HFPack is highly informal and 18.1575 is a ...
Hello to all: Well, the mystery occurred again today. At about 10 minutes prior to the start of the net, I had a S8-S9 noise on 18.156. Then went away, only...
Hi Folks, A search on the ARRL Web site finds several wide area "nets" registered on 17 meters. HFPack is found on 18157.5, OMISS uses 18165, the World Scout...
In the interest of all concerned, I think 18.152.5 sounds fine. If it doesn't work, we'll try something different. I am sure we were crowding the HF Pack guys....
Hi Doug, Enjoyed the group yesterday. I heard everyone yesterday except for Georgia which is unusual for me as I usually have a pipeline there. My personal...
