Also, wae ssb is this weekend, so watch out for the hurricane watch net and
other relief nets that may be on the hf bands. For Europeans listening
split in the upper parts of 40m, if you are told you are listening on a net
frequency or hear a net on your listening frequency please pick a new one.
Stateside operators should be sure to listen on the qsx frequency to make
sure you aren't stomping on a net. This may also be a problem in the upper
parts of 20m where various nets may also be operating during the day.
