MARS Nets

Wednesday Information Net and Roundtable

FrequencyDay of the weekTime
145.210 MHz- PL 110.9Every Wednesday8:00 PM Central

This net is held weekly every Wednesday Night at 8PM sharp for the purpose of disseminating MARS Club information, Club announcements, General announcements, Tech Talk, and a Buy, Sell, Swap or Trade section.

Each week we have different topics for our Tech Talk given by HAM Radio Operators experienced in the specific area of discussion.  Glen Warnstaff K5CPD, will be coordinating the TECH TALK Subject matter and speakers for the weekly nets.  If you would like to be a Tech Talk Presenter, please contact Glen at K5CPD@arrl.net and let him put you on the schedule to speak during the TECH TALK SECTION.  We will always try to plan and know weeks in advance what our scheduled presentations are going to be so we can use the club website to download Power Point Presentations or supporting documentation.

We are also asking for volunteers to be Net Control Stations and run the net.  These will be controlled Nets with scripts to follow so if you have ever wanted to practice being a NCS, without the pressure and anxiety of a RACES/ARES event, here is your chance.

We would also encourage our MARS Youth Group to participate in these nets so they can gain experience operating under a controlled net and learn proper net procedures and etiquette by participating in actual nets.  These nets are designed to first and foremost be FUN and learning tools for everyone involved, so please come and CHECK IN this next Wednesday for the MARS WEEKLY INFORMATION NET!
