Announcements: From AUG Net Announcements: National Commander’s updates, 2 AUG 2020, “Thirty years ago today, the nation of Iraq invaded the nation of Kuwait. The sequence of events led to the Gulf War and a new chapter in U.S. military history. The American Legion will forever remember the service and sacrifices made by those who served in Desert Shield and Desert Storm. God bless our Gulf War veterans.”

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. The net is listed on the www.openquad.net website. 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.

For God and Country

President K5TAL
