Speaking of ORR Nets, a thought occurred to me. I am aware of a group that holds a net on 40 meters, on Sunday afternoons. This group has a similar problem to ours. They are spread out all over the U.S. They run their 40 meter SSB Net simaltaneous to their EchoLink Net. Stations that cannot be heard by the NCS on 40 Meters check in with the NCS on EchoLink. It works out rather well, with some comments being relayed from EchoLink over to SSB and the reverse.
It occurred to me that we could attempt something of this nature if anyone was interested. We might even try 20 Meter SSB rather than 40 in an attempt to communicate with our west coast members.
Your comments and thoughts please?
