* INDICATES FIRST-TIME CHECK-IN

Announcements: NO ANNOUNCEMENTS, AS THE NET WAS OPENED AND CLOSED DUE TO LOCAL THUNDER AND LIGHTNING STORMS.

Thursdays at 7 pm CST, K5TAL hosts an all-digital net via a service called Quadnet Array (www.openquad.net). This service allows any form of digital voice to be routed so DMR users can hear D-Star and C4FM Fusion, D-Star can hear everyone, as can C4FM users. It also allows DV Dongle users to communicate likewise. The net is listed on the www.openquad.netwebsite. You can listen to the HF 80 meter by going to www.n4dkd.com and enter the frequency and LSB. If you have an Apple device, there is a box to the right to enable audio for IOS.

For God and Country
