Technical Mentoring and Elmering Net – 7/20/2017

The audio archive of this net can best be followed by downloading the .mp3 file for the appropriate date here and listening with the media player of your choice. You can move the progress slider forward or backward to the subject of interest to you.

We had another good net tonight with 7 check-ins plus net control, Garrett, AG6RQ and some chat room visitors! Tonight’s subjects included:

  • What are the optimal conditions for operating on the 10 and 6 meter bands?
  • What is sporadic E?
  • What is the best way to get into the K6TZ repeater from the other side of the mountain (say if driving away from the local area)?.
  • How do you read and interpret a solar report / forecast for ham bands?  Hint, lots of info here: www.hamqsl.com/solar.html
  • Why do most radios have a microphone ground in addition to an rf or regular ground?

Tune in to the SBARC TM&E Net every Thursday at 8:00 PM local (2000 Hrs) and see what interesting questions will arise or ask some of your own! All club members and visitors are encouraged to check in to the net each week and join in with questions and /or answers to and contribute the knowledge of new and seasoned amateur radio operators alike.
