Kevin - I was asked this and didn't know myself. When you make this
post every week, is this what the next program is going to be about?
Follow me? Is this a "guide" to the upcoming Saturday night show? TIA
Peter's right -- it's a guide for some of the more notable moments
in the _recording_ that was just posted. I'm sorry if that wasn't
more clear. Since the Liberty Net is really not a show at all, but a
loosely-structured open discussion with an emphasis on free speech,
there'd be no way for me to predict what will be on the air next week!

Every week Marty, N2IRJ, uploads his recording of the Net, and I
post a link to that recording in the "Liberty Net Audio" list in the
upper right column onhttp://3950.net/-- usually within one day of
the Net itself. Then a few days later I post my article with a brief
discussion of the highlights.

With best regards,

Kevin, WB4AIO.

Your efforts are much appreciated, but may I suggest that
"April 17 Liberty Net" might be less confusing than saying
"Liberty Net for Week of April 17-24".



Maybe you're right -- but I hate to have an article title that
discourages the uninitiated from reading it because they might think
it's "out of date."

Maybe I should just title them with a snippet from some discussion
theme, and leave the time-stamping to the recording (which N2IRJ always
timestamps), the CMS, and Usenet.



Or refer directly to the recording. Not everyone who'd be
interested in the content has a good listening venue. I, myself, no
stranger to tough captures, find that some signals from the Liberty
Net are not easily readable, while the recording allows me to hear
the signals I may miss.

Similar benefits may apply to others.

But one things I do suggest is that you continue. I don't often
agree with the conclusions, or the presentation of some of the
Liberty Net members, but these types of discussions, throughout the
culture, have been taking place in the shadows for far too long. If
nothing else, exposing the Liberty Net to a wider audience begins
dialog that is essential for maintaining the direct involvement of
the People in their government.

While broadcasting on the ham bands is illegal, such discussion
groups are not.

That said, live streaming from a monitoring point may be a next
step.
