2 Meter Net Report for May 2022

Our 2 meter net meets EVERY Wednesday at 8:00 PM (local time) on the clubs repeater system network. These are good training grounds for potential emergency situations as well as helping new hams in the area to have an easy way to get use to “talking on the radio”!

Our club website (www.bigbendarc.com) has all the information about our 2 meter net. This includes the Net Control members schedule, the “script” (supplied only as a guide to insure that the important information is given out weekly – you can use it anyway you see fit) and a list of the recent check-in members.

The month of May we had four (4) Wednesday’s, and it went this way:

Date Check-ins Net Control Station
May 4 22 KF5KMA – DAN
May 11 19 KI5ANQ – SCOTT
May 18 18 KG5LMG – MARVIN
May 25 22 KI5EXF – SHARON


MONTHLY TOTAL – 81

A HEARTY THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION IN SUPPORT OF OUR NET ACTIVITIES!!!!!!!!!!

If you don’t have the time to check-in to the net and participate in the round-table discussion, take a minute of your time and check-in as an “in-and-out” (you’re in for the head count, but not participating in the actual net). ALL participation is appreciated and encouraged!

Echo-Link System check-ins were as follows:
KD5KC – Mike – El Paso (5 times)
K5RIC – Ric – Nogal Mesa, NM.
K5LON – Lonny – Van Horn (5 times)
KI5JTB – Rachel – San Marcos, TX.
KD5CUB – Shawn – El Paso, TX.
K5CLO – Gordo – Alpine
WB5JLO – Martin – El Paso (2 times)
KD9USH – Josh – Olney, IL.
Special thanks to Scott- KI5ANQ for maintaining the Echo-Link system, It’s working GREAT!!!!!!

I want to specifically thank our five (5) Net Control stations (soon to be 6, with the addition of KI5SNZ – John) for all of their efforts on behalf of the club’s 2 meter net for the entire year. It just wouldn’t have happened if you were NOT there! Our Net Control Stations are:

KF5KMA – Dan, KG5LMG – Marvin, W5RHN – Bob, KI5ANQ – Scott and KI5EXF – Sharon.
