Four States Fusion Net

We are having a Four States Fusion Net every Thursday at 7pm on the 442.675 repeater or WiresX Room 46341 SE-KANSAS. Everyone with a Fusion radio is invited to participate when possible. We would like to get 3-4 volunteers to run net control once a month so let us know if you would like to help out!

A lot of us have a Yaesu radio that does Fusion and we just are not using it. Let's test and get more familiar with the C4FM side of our gear. We will use DN mode and it is recommended to NOT have your radio in "AMS" mode or Automatic Mode Select as you could have your radio change to FM during the net and could be confusing.

We are on WiresX now so we should see some interesting check ins soon!!

Favorite HF Band... A SURVEY !!

We have some new hams and new members and many of us are looking to improve our antenna farms so I have been curious which bands are the most favorite! So many radios, so many antennas and SO MANY BANDS to choose from. We all have our favorites so let us know which ones are your TWO favorite HF bands. We did not include 6m because well it's not HF so don't be disappointed that you don't see it. 6 meters is kind of it's own category and an AWESOME band!

We are distributing this survey to MANY venues so feel free to send to anyone that might be interested including other ham clubs and operators that may not be on our list! We will post a summary in a few weeks after we get a good amount or responses! Thanks and 73 !!
