[W6YRA] Repeater Net and HAB Update

[Kyle Colton]

Please remember to visit the poll and mark when you'd be able to
participate in the net (http://doodle.com/kgyh84mr3wh6szu8). Remember, we
should have someone in the shack, so you don't need a license or a radio to
listen or comment.

I've narrowed down the poll a bit. It looks like the 5-7pm time weekdays
are the best slots. Unfortunately, Paul (KU6T) mentioned this is when one
of the other repeaters on our same frequency is most active. Mountain
shadowing and PL tones should keep us safe from interference, but we may
need to be concerned about interfering with them.

Top choices right now are:
Tuesday 6-7pm
Friday 5-6pm
Friday 6-7pm

I think we'll close the poll tomorrow and choose a final time. Please vote
so we can find the best time for everyone!

73,
