Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I propose we begin discussing days, times, frequencies to see when is most convenient for the greatest number of us. 40, 80, 160 Meter SSB would all work for me. How are Sunday evenings for everyone else?

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I*m good with Sunday evenings, right now just 40 meters is on the table for me. Well* I can tune up my 40m loop on 80m but it*s going to be inefficient. I just need to put up my 260* end fed again for 80-160. I should have that up again soon.
Sundays at 7pm EST work for everybody? Finding a vacant frequency on 40M will be a challenge, especially inside the gen class allotment, but I am game*

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
When I taught my kids about radio, I used the ham whisperer. It's not someone who's able to communicate with fat chicks, but rather an extremely detailed guide to ham radio, that really breaks it down and makes it easy. It even comes with youtube videos so you can listen and watch, as well as read.

I can log the net on NETLOGGER (has to be downloaded on a PC or MAC) which will show the freq and who has logged in. It also has a chat window which will help if some have trouble getting heard.

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
40M for me, I might be able to "bend" the antenna for 80M.
After dinner is family time. I prefer non-weekend day. That probably won't work for most though.Corruptissima re publica plurimae leges

Re: Radio communication as part of preparedness
I can certainly respect that. Weekdays daytime most will be working. Sunday evenings are probably the evenings with the least amount of commitments. Maybe you could break away for 15-30 mins just to check in and see who can hear you?
I*m not dead set on Sundays at 7*. But we need input from anyone interested.
