Ed,
?
Sorry we missed you. Your call seems familiar - have you checked in before? If so, who was Net Control, if you remember? If there is a fellow out of the five if us that you hear well we can perhaps make sure that is the person that makes a separate call during each net. Today, I had Evan, K9SQG, in Ohio, make some calls on my behalf. I am in the Milwaukee area.? ?

If you continue to have problems, try calling toward the end of the net when there are fewer callers for you to compete with. While sometimes things go long, generally we are nearly done at about 45 to 50 minutes into the hour (3:45, or so, for you and me).
?
Looking forward to seeing you get through to the net - or to meeting you on the HF bands another time
?
On a side note, I was looking at your QRZ page. My hat is off to you for your service as a Fire Fighter. We are all in your debt. Thank you - enjoy your retirement.

73,
