Last Wednesday saw our longest net yet, tipping the scales at a few seconds shy of an hour. We had a total of 30 check-ins, and saw a few new faces among our established crop of regulars.<\/p>\nLast Wednesday saw our longest net yet, tipping the scales at a few seconds shy of an hour.

Once again our epic battle of check-ins between the guys of the Las Vegas superstation and the clutch of hams in Halifax continues unabated. Once again, the Vegas crew wins out with a total of eight check-ins. <\/p>\n
If there are any groups of hams that check into tht net on a regular basis from the same area, take a group photo of ourselves and send it in to us…. we’ll feature it on the site and all poke fun at your hamsexyness (not really, we’ll be kind). Vegas guys, I expect a photo next week.<\/p>\n
Also, a quick programming note: Thanks to the hard work of the team headed by Dave VE7LTD<\/b> (the inventor of IRLP), we now have a permanent<\/i> IRLP\/ECHOLINK bridge!! That’s right, if you want to access the net but don’t have access to IRLP, you can now use ECHOLINK<\/b> to participate!! The ECHOLINK conference room *VAN-IRLP*<\/b> is now permanently connected to IRLP node 9008<\/b> (The Hamsexy Reflector). <\/p>\n
This also means a change of location for the net. The net will NO LONGER<\/b> be held on IRLP node 9007…. for future nets, please use IRLP node 9008<\/b>. <\/p>\n
Remember, although Echolink is far from anything resemling real ham radio, it is PERMANENTLY<\/b> connected to the node. Because it may be connected to a real over-the-air repeater at any time<\/i>, be sure to conduct yourselves on *VAN-IRLP*<\/b> as if you were on the air. <\/p>\n
So for next week’s net, be sure to join us either on IRLP node 9008<\/b> or on Echolink at *VAN-IRLP*<\/b> – see you all there!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
