PCARS (K8BF)

The next PCARS Flex Net will be held tonight, Wednesday October 9th at 8:00 PM. This month’s net will be a Digital-Only net using RTTY 45.45 baud 170 Hz shift, on 10 meters. Tune your transceiver’s dial frequency to 28.110 MHz USB (yes, USB for this net) and center the RTTY cursors at 1,500 Hz on the waterfall.

As this is a digital-only net, we will be using prosigns and Q signals to streamline net operations. A review of the use of prosigns and Q signals named ” Flex-Net-Digital-Operations.pdf” can be found on the PCARS groups.io site, here: https://groups.io/g/PCARS/files/Flex-Net-Digital-Operations.pdf

Hi all,

If you were here at our September meeting, you heard from Bobby Graves, KB5HAV, about the Hurricane Watch Net. A presentation is all good (thank you Bobby), but in reality it is WAY different. Check the 4 YouTube videos ( last one is not the HWN, but another operator who is doing great work for Hurricane Helene):

This is a great amateur radio operator:

This is why I do the Hurricane Watch Net – it makes a difference.
