10:00 AM 442,750+100 (BARC Primary Repeater)

Daily Hangout Net

This net is sorta an extension of the "Social Distancing Net" started by past president Michael WO6Y (sk) back during COVID.

Everyone is invited to join or just listen in. Some of the club officers are on the net almost every day. There are often lots of subject matter experts participating as well - we can't cover everything but it is remarkable the breadth of knowledge we as a group have. Don't be bashful, if it is your first time just listen for a bit to get the flow and then jump in.

Hope to hear you on sometime.
