For the most part I agree with the "abject Buffoonery" on 75M. There are however, exceptions such as the 3905 century club which has a great bunch of very decent people on it and they very much welcome newcomers. It is a county hunter's net though and absolutely not a net to argue whatever topic is out there and then grandstand your position like so many 75M nets are. http://www.3905ccn.com/newsite/index.htm Worth a listen if you wish to work 75M and if you do, your K3 will be an excellent radio for you in all ways. 73, Gary KA1J ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
