Since Dave has been so successful shaking the bushes and increasing
activity on 222 I thought I'd try riding his coat tails.....
Well the saying is ... “Plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery”.....So
here goes.... (Thanks Dave!)
Hey boys and girls, don't forget that this is another Wednesday so anyone
with any sort of 432 MHz gear should be planning to be on the band this
evening. I know it is the dead of winter and the winds are howling and the
snow is blowing around. Your rotator is probably stuck. If your house is
anything like mine, I'll bet your furnace broke. Your fridge probably died,
and your hot water heater just rotted out and warm water just spilled out
all over the cellar. All of these are no excuse to miss the fun on 432 MHz
this evening. The fun starts at around 8PM on the East Coast, which is
00:00 UT. Look around 432.100 MHz for any activity and move off the calling
frequency when people start showing up. At 8:30PM the activity all moves
up to 432.150 and is pretty much a "pig pile". But hey ....it's FUN! Many
regulars monitor the ON4KST Chat page ( 144/432 MHz region 2) Here in
Quarter Back Land, there are winds and plunging temperatures. I am
thankful that I was not picked by the 432 MHz Activity Committee for the
all expenses paid trip to Bondi's Island resort area / landfill and sewage
treatment facility!
So please make an attempt to get on the band, make a few contacts, and
deliver some excitement to the 432 MHz band tonight.
