Hey all,

We will have an HF net tomorrow evening, May 5th, at 8:30pm (20:30 
hours) following the SVEC County net.

The net will be on 80m lower side band, the frequency is 3.878MHz and if 
that frequency is in use, then drop down in 2KHz increments until you 
hear the net or you hit 3.868MHz. Don't forget to tune up your antennas.

For tomorrow night's discussion, lets have an open discussion for what 
people would like to talk about. Please bring a topic, lets try to have 
an open forum discussion on whatever topic is brought up. Hopefully, the 
band propagation will be good enough for all to hear each other.

We will also do a signal strength check per each station who checks in 
to see how the band propagation is affecting us.

As always, please feel free to send feedback and ideas for topics.

The current list of topics to discuss for HF that folks have brought up are:

- How to reduce power line noise
- HF antenna, types of HF antennas, configurations, examples, antenna 
raising parties, etc.
- HF IF/DSP filtering
- What is required to deploy in the field
- Communications with stations outside our local area
- Why HF instead of EchoLink or IRLP?

Please feel free to reply with additional suggestions so I can compile a 
complete list.

These and other topics could also be discussed at one of our CARES meetings.

Have a great day,

Darryl

p.s. Jim, please forward to the SVEC mailing list.
