Announcements: Post 46, Danville, Ky., will conduct their monthly D-Star net on Monday, Oct. 5 at 8 pm EDT on Reflector 56C. EchoLink users can go to KY4RW-L and also check in using that mode. Check-ins begin about 30 minutes before the net starts. The after-net will have the post service officer available for any questions you may have for him.

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.
