The next PCARS Flex Net will be held on Wednesday March 12th at 8:00 PM. The net will be held on 10 meters, USB Phone. The frequency for this net will be 28.350 MHz, +/- QRM. Technician class license holders are authorized to operate in this portion of the band and is a good opportunity to get some HF net experience!

The Flex Net is a great place to contact other PCARS members and QSL for the PCARS A to Z Award. Information about this award can be found on the PCARS web site under the “Awards” tab. The net is a lot of fun and gives valuable feedback on how well your station is operating. I hope to hear you then!
