We're trying. So far I've logged two r.r.a.p regulars and am always looking
for more. Was also lucky enough to work W0EX before his untimely passing. Sadly, not N0BK though. The net is named in honor of these two SK's. (n0Bk & w0eX, hence BXNet.) Please feel free to check in. It's a whole lot more fun OTA, than on the NG. :-) 73 de Bert WA2SI "Howdy" wrote in message m... Wow, pretty cool. Is this a regular event?

[Alun is not fond of telegraphy in case you wondered...] It's the OF double standard (as usual). LHA / WMD Hey Les.....stop putting lemon extract on that thumb of yours. Your getting too sour. "Les?" My wife and I have a wonderful lemon tree in the back yard. I planted it over three decades ago. Continues to produce great lemons. Great with salmon cooked in Puget Sound barbecue style. Wife got a recipe for candied lemon peel from a French food store next to the airport. Delicious. REAL lemon, not that "phoney" lemon extract one buys in the market in a plastic bottle trying to look like a real lemon. Sort of like the old futz "REAL ham" that knows nothing more than beeping telegraphy. "Real" state of the art THAT is. Whenever someone invents a time machine to go back to 1920 and stay there, you ought to be first on the line to go. Les Besser is a known name in RF design, was the one that sparked the computer analysis program that ARRL couldn't sell (and dropped). Too bad you beepers can't bring yourself to USE computers. Nothing like that in the 1920s when telegraphy meant "real hams." Now polish up that Spark transmitter and get ready to send... Beep, beep. LHA / WMD |

Pardon us while the rest of the world continues to advance. You stay back there in the 1920s and have lotsa fun. And ante up for a new pad of "official ARRL Radiograms." Your old one is getting rather yellow with age. Beep, beep. LHA / WMD |

Hee, hee, hee, YES! w3rv Perhaps we could do a phone net on 7237? Not tonight, though. Yeah, why not ssb and CW versions? Getting past the usual RRAP nonsense and getting a bit serious for once I'd like toss out a thought. RRAP on-the-air getogethers have a (very short) history and some lessons came out of that history. In the first of these sessions a few years ago it turned out to be something of a "long distance" CW round table. PA to CA, MN to TX, everybody copied everybody Q5 at 0130Z +/-. Almost. Helluva lot of fun. But copy this: Both N2EY and I are both in the Philly area. AC6XG didn't exactly overload the front end of my RX but nearby N2EY was even weaker and I had a bad time with copying him. There wasn't much groundwave propagation between Jim and so poof, he skipped right over me. No surprise there considering the freq and time of day. So I have a suggestion. Or two. From what I can tell all the current crop of parties interested in pulling off another one of these sessions be it CW or ssb or both are all rather close together in the mid-Atlantic states. Without further droning on on my part here you guys might consider moving the effort to 80/75M if you try it after dark or maybe on 40M during some weekend mid-afternoon when the gods of propagation usually smile more favorably on medium and short haul HF comms. 73 de N3KIP w3rv |
