I know not long ago, there was regular 222 activity hosted by
K8TQK (and I think) K4TO on Tuesday nights. A few weeks
ago, I heard from KC8QAE (EN91) that he and N8WNA
(EN82) were again starting up informal activity on 222, every
Tuesday, about 9:30pm eastern time, 0230 utc.
KC8QAE asked me to spread the word and I'm delighted to.
I love 222 and am making a commitment toward getting any
VHF'er, anywhere, involved with 222 Tuesdays.
Please remember the 222 Tuesdays,which will be every week,
roughly 0030-0230 utc. No formal net control, no set agenda.
Just grass-roots VHF'ing. Get on, swing the beams and call CQ
on/near 222.100 in various directions. Spread out if it gets
crowded.
Use this webpage http://dxworld.com/220prop.html to keep
track of the activity. Please spread the word. Make this a
nationwide deal.
I already promoted it heavily via email to various Midwest
reflectors the last two weeks, and it helped with the sprints.
Two weeks ago, on short notice, we had 10 guys show up
across a wide area for 222 Tuesday. This short post is proof
of how well it worked. http://kc9bqa.com/?p=1003
If you would like direct email reminders of 222 Tuesdays,
drop me an email and I'll get you on a list. All you get from me
is VHF talk -- no jokes, politics or forwards.
Anyone who is interested in promoting this in their area, I'll
be happy to share tips, if you want them.
Thanks for your time, 73,
Todd KC9BQA EN63ao 40 N of Milwaukee
50 thru 2304 (1296 is down, 2304 is only so-so)
