[WARC] Strong and new net control for 144.240 tonight @7:15pm

[Todd Sprinkmann]

     Exciting news...  pleased to announce that WB9LYH Mark 
will start hosting the 144.240 net every Wed. at 7:15pm.  
WB9LYH is located in EN54cl (Wood Co. right in the 
middle of WI).   

     He's got a great station and is 100 miles closer to most of 
you than I am.   Since the long-term goal of the nets is to get 
more and more folks on the air, he's an excellent choice for 
any net that looks SW, W, NW and N of Wisconsin.  

     Get on the air tonight, or any Wed. that's convenient for 
you and expect to hear far more signals from WI/MN/IA 
than you previously have heard.  There could even be a few 
MO/KS/NE/Dakotas surprises with good propagation.  

      Mark may have an occasional Wed. night where he's 
unavailable and when that happens, I expect to take the 
net, just like I have the past 14 months.  

      I will continue to send out the reminder emails.   I also 
will continue to run the 144.250 Badger Contesters net at 
8:30pm every Wednesday.  With that net, I start out looking 
south toward Milwaukee and Chicago where many of our 
check-ins typically are.  I then swing a full 360, calling CQ 
and listening.  I look SW, then W, NW, N, NE, etc.   This 
means I look toward LSE and SE MN about 8:40-45pm.  

     You are all welcome to listen along or check in to either 
net.  The only purpose is to stir up activity on less-used 
portions of 2 meters.
