Yep, that'll work.

I do wonder, however, about your estimate for this net's potential. Every time I've put my mast up at an RV campground, somebody will stop by and introduce themselves by call sign; I am not exaggerating when I say every time.

I have my call signs on both my RV and my toad license (in Texas you can have the exact same license numbers on multiple vehicles with the radio cars plates) and have been approached several times at truck stops, mostly Flying J's, by other RVing Hams. It leads me to believe that there must be thousands of us out there.

The key to growth is, as you pointed out, exposure. A QST article might be a good place to start and the subject would be why you guys started it. Even a small piece in the "Just Up Front in QST" section would give the net a ton of exposure and really boost the viewers and, hopefully, members.
