Announcements:
1. Legion HQ is looking for a TALARC club interested in serving as a NCS for a monthly national or regional TALARC net. Contact Josh KD9DHX at K9TAL@legion.org.
Thursdays at 7 pm CST, K5TAL hosts an all-Digital Net via a service called Quadnet Array (www.openquad.net). This service allows any form of digital voice to be routed so DMR users can hear D-Star and C4FM Fusion, D-Star can hear everyone, as can C4FM users. It also allows DV Dongle users to communicate likewise. This additional net will allow any licensed ham of any license class to join in on our weekly roundtable discussions. The net is now listed on the www.openquad.net website. If you have questions you can email me, wv5q@arrl.net, and I will do what I can to answer them. On the openquad.net web page (listed above) the Reflectors and Talkgroups for D-Star, DMR and Yaesu C4FM System Fusion are listed. Once you connect to any one of them, you are connected to all Digital Voice Users. Simple as that. I will be using a free logging program called NetLogger that can be downloaded from netlogger.com. On Thursday before net I will start the program and you should be able to select K5TAL from the net list. You can see the list, and know who is up next. It also has an “Almost Instant Messaging” feature you can type a message to all. Don’t forget: you can listen to the HF 80 meter by going to www.n4dkd.com and enter the frequency and LSB. If you have an Apple device, there is a box to the right to enable audio for IOS.
Location for all net times was discussed and direction to www.legion.org/hamradio was provided.
