DISCUSSION:

NET OPERATED ON 2 FREQUENCIES, 3.862 MHZ AND 7.238 MHZ. AFTER CHECKING IN, AND ANNOUNCEMENT WAS MADE, K5CUB MOVED TO 7.238 AND CALLED FOR CHECK-INS. 7 UNIQUE CHECK-INS ON EACH NET.

DISCUSSED VETERANS DAY SPECIAL EVENT FOR K9TAL AND K5TAL ON NOV. 11.

ENCOURAGED ALL LISTENING TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT TALARC AND THE NETS AVAILABLE TO HAMS, WHETHER MEMBERS OF A.L. OR NOT.

DISCUSSED MY RECENT VISIT TO MFJ HEADQUARTERS IN STARKVILLE, AND MY TOUR OF THE MFJ HQ, AMERITRON, HY-GAIN AND CUSHCRAFT FACILITIES. FOUND OUT THE REAL MEANING OF "MFJ" AND IF ANYONE WANTS TO KNOW, CHECK INTO THE NET AND JUST ASK.
