TALARC Monthly Net Alert:
In response to your requests following the less than stellar performance of 20 meters on TALARC HF Net Saturdays, the monthly HF net will MOVE THIS WEEKEND to 40 meters. The new day, time and frequency will be: the second SUNDAY of the month on 7.238 MHz LSB at 2100Z (1600 EST). The first net at the new time and day is tomorrow, November 10, 2013, at 2100UTC.
Please note our band change from 20M to 40M, and the new time from Saturday to Sunday at 2100Z (1600 EST). If you find these net times (and frequencies) good and you like the venues, please let the net control know so we can lock them in on a monthly basis. Naturally, all suggestions are welcome at email k9tal@legion.org.
Assistant Net Control Operators are wanted for both nets. If interested, contact HF Net Manager Craig, W3CRR or IRLP Net Manager Bill, NZ9S at k9tal@legion.org.
As always, we invite all amateur-licensed wartime veterans and family members to join The American Legion Amateur Radio Club. Membership is free to hams who are members of The American Legion, The American Legion Auxiliary, or the Sons of The American Legion.
