We will have a roll call of the repeaters that are connected to the reflector and call on them one at a time. When we call upon your repeater then you may Call and we will get you in then. We will start at the top of the list and work our way down. After we get to the bottom of the list of repeaters we will star all over again for the repeaters on the reflector. We will call on the dongle users when we reach the bottom of the repeater list before starting at the top again. We are using this procedure because of the problems that seemed to come about during Dayton. We will be sending out Certificates to those stations that we talk to that send a self addressed stamped envelope. More information to follow.
