[W5SFA] Reminder: Wednesday Night Net

[Gilbert Franke]

Regarding the Wednesday net 8/19 -- This was rather frustrating.  Perhaps I
just don't understand how the link affects the vhf side of the repeater
system.  Often I would transmit but not hear a squelch tail.  I assumed
that I was not keying the repeater.  So I started keying, listening for a
tail, and if it was there, keying again to talk.  Sometimes that worked but
sometimes not!

I'm going to try a different rig to see if I have an intermittent
sub-audible tone on my FT-7800.

I think it is a good thing we are checking out our equipment!  Especially
if we are going to activate (re-activate) an ARES group!

Thanks for getting us going, Roger!
