146.430 FM Simplex Net ON Thursday @ 8pm
I’ll call the 146.430 FM net at the usual time — 8pm central. Look toward 40 miles N of Milwaukee. I call CQ for SE WI Counties first, then open it up to “anyone, anywhere”. If you’re DX, that’s your cue to say hello. I have a vertical up 90? and 200w, so I get out pretty well. I can also switch to a 10 el vertical beam up 75?, if anyone wants a sked. Please email me prior to the net so I know where to point.
WV9E Dave also runs a FM net at 8:30pm every Thursday, and he’s on 146.460, located just north of La Crosse, WI, in EN43. They have a good group and also enjoy DX check-ins. I’ve worked them about 1/3 of the time clear across WI, with very light signals.
Both these nets are friendly and flexible. The purpose is to create more activity on less-used portions of 2m. Say hello when you’re able and please spread the word in a wide area. We want to hear from all parts of WI and surrounding states.
