Re: Net Checkins 1/14/25

 

It is not necessary to link a new email address or anything out of the ordinary.? The steps to change call sign (display name) in are very simple.

In the left hand menu, there is an item named "identity".

From there, simply edit the display name field.

No need to create a new account or change email addresses.

If you are not a member, the list admin can enter new and erase old.

If you join now, follow the steps to link old address to new account, then add new, delete old.

If you now have acct, you can sign on and add new, delete old.

Advice- don't delete old until new works.

You might be able with the app if you have an account. I deleted the app from my phone as it duplicated my email accounts.

Also, I just wanted to say what a great time had by all. we were working on the three types of antennas, we built a 6-meter portable, a 2-meter jpole from faraday cloth and a handheld 2-meter directional antenna from a tape measure. Special thanks to Thomas and Jimmie for their support.?

We need to improve the VHF capabilities a little bit.? HF NVIS is a good solution, but I'd like to see our local VHF working a bit better.? Even NVIS can bounce over someone this close.

It might do us well to build 2 meter copper J-pole antennas.? They only cost about $30 worth of copper, and half an hour of build time.? They're rigid and work well.

It would also do well to test 6 meters for direct VHF contact, which was the purpose of the 6 meter antenna build today.? Jimmie and I will be testing this weekend once he has his strung up.? We'll let you know the results.? We have a few more 6 meter verticals in progress to test as well.

Any other ideas to improve local communication are certainly welcome.

Re: Antenna build

 

Folks I won¡¯t be able to make it tomorrow for the build meeting. I was abruptly but politely reminded of our wedding anniversary which, after 18 years you¡¯d think I¡¯d remember.

Anyway, here¡¯s to seeing you next time.
