Morning roundtable on #N8DUY .
I took the bus westbound (well, with a bit of a detour northbound since that is what the bus routes go when you miss the direct connection). Took two rounds of the net from the Roadhouse, excellent signal report on my HT.
The challenge of the day is to get to Dexter MI on the bus ("Washtenaw Wave") and operate from there. I think I can hit #N8DUY #W8SRC and maybe #WD8IEL from there, but I'll just have to check. (except W8SRC is UHF and my #TH22AT is VHF only)
Washtenaw County (Ann Arbor MI area) holds a weekly Amateur Radio Public Service Corps net at 830p ET Sunday on the 145.15- #N8DUY (#Skywarn) repeater.
Once a month after the regular net there's a simplex net on a clear frequency - this month we used 146.44.
Net was a success - #W8SRC net control could hear nearly everyone from the #W8UM station. I was pedestrian mobile in a park about 2 mi from #W8UM using a 4W Kenwood TH-22AT and was still copyable by many!
