Tim and others,
Sounds like a great ideal, I personally may have a difficult time
making that regularly, but I do monitor 14.329 during the day.. Remind
me and I will make an announcement on the net Sunday.

Just a short QST
There were several of us running FLEX-3000s last night on 40m (7.181) @ 0130 UTC that
gathered a fairly large round table before propagation changed swiftly we all dropped
into the noise. It was really fun to listen to other FLEX-3000s and talking about the
radio in general. Particularly interesting is when you start using PowerSDR to record
stations over the air and play back their audio. Then other ops (usually non Flexers)
start gathering like crazy. Dale WA8SRA actually helped on guy, Don K4ENE, identify and
rectify a particularly loud noise on his signal. Using the Panadapter, he was able to
identify the interference as being a really annoying 120 Hz peak. Of all things, it was
isolated to vibrational noise coming from his AMP being transmitted down the mic boom and
into his PR-781 mic. Now try that with a "firmware defined radio". I think we
have defined a new branch of science; flextroscopy - characterizing over the air RF
signals using an FlexRadio SDR HI HI.
If there is some interest in making an informal gathering on 40m, we can try to
do this several times a week.
