Let's Talk Tonight....NES Net.

[C-pher]

I'm not sure what time I will be home. But I would like to get a group of us on the air somewhere and talk... It's been awhile, so I think that it would be fun.

Who's in? And where do you guys think that we should meet?

 

[Turbocharged]

Waltham or Paxton work for me for 2 meter.
Mt. Watchusett if we're doing 440.

Remember that Paxton has a net each evening at 7:30. Also, I think that it might be best to communicate with one of the trustees of the repeater before thinking about regular scheds. I've been a member of CMARA for several years and would encourage membership. Check out the CMARA website. Jack. W1FKG.

I'm too far from Paxton, but Waltham works for me. Sometime after 6:30 is good for me. 9:00 would be best.

 

[C-pher]

I can't get that far on 70cm...so most of those are out for me.

But we can do Waltham...

OEJ, I agree, if we're going to take over a repeater on a regular basis, we should talk to someone. But, if we bounce around when we have the time...do you think that we should still talk to someone? For the most part...we just see who's around and talk where ever we can get the most people to reach.

I can't speak for the repeater owner/trustees. Probably a "grey" area. I'll watch for Greg WA1JXR on my AM commutes and talk to him about it. He is a trustee. I have a 10 element rotatable beam for 2M in Acton and can get out pretty well with that. Jack. W1FKG. P.S. Would not hurt for some NES hams to become members if not already.

Sooo, Waltham at 8:30ish?

 

[cockpitbob]

I have to tuck KB1TRB into bed at 8:30 so I'll be a few minutes late

 

[Zappa]

Waltham .64 has a swap net Wednesdays @ 9:00pm

 

[Radio]

Larry, KS1B, is the trustee of the 146.97 W1BIM repeater, he is a close personal friend, if we ever want to use Paxton, let me know. As far as CMARA, meh.

Well, we can either make sure we're done by 9:00, or meet after the net.

 

[C-pher]

I just got home...what's the plan?

 

[C-pher]

I'm on Waltham listening to some guy talk about Property lots.

 

[Turbocharged]

I just got home...what's the plan?

no plan yet. sound like 9:30 on Waltham should work.

 

[C-pher]

no plan yet. sound like 9:30 on Waltham should work.

I've just put 14 hours OT in the past three days...I'm tired. I think that I'm going to be in bed by that point.

 

[C-pher]

OK, sounds like no one is either Paxton or Waltham...so I'm going to head back upstairs and get some shut eye...I was really hoping to be home before 8 pm tonight... But, the damn work got in my way.

I heard you check in to the Paxton net, but I had to have the squelch wide open. I'll meet you on Waltham at 9:30.

Looks like the net might run late, but I'll be around after it ends no mater what.

 

[cockpitbob]

I'll see how long I last.

How about Westford 146.955- (74.4)? That's about half way between you and me?

ok, I'm on there now.

 

[maee]

ok, I'm on there now.

I'm near Boston and I only have an HT, so I can't hit that.

 

[cockpitbob]

Uh Oh. Someone with the same Harold Edgerton avatar as me. This could get confusing.

I have similar photos that I took when I was a student at RIT back in the late 70's. Playing cards, balloons, oranges etc. Want one?

 

[one-eyed Jack]

Talked to Greg, WA1JXR on the way in this AM. He is a CMARA trustee (Paxton repeater). He tells me that new users are always welcome and encourages membership. It is an "open" repeater. Check out the rules. CMARA.ORG. Jack. W1FKG.

I SUCK! Do you guys want to try to meet up again tonight? Early if I can get home in time??

I'd like to but I'm off the air for Boy Scouts tonight.

 

[Turbocharged]

Sure, where and when?

 

[C-pher]

What are you thinking? I have a 9 pm net on the Attleboro Repeater every Thursday. So I'm going to be there at that time...

But, I'm around now if you want to do some chatting somewhere....

 

[Turbocharged]

I'll be on waltham at 9:30.
