It's pretty disturbing when you think about how the amateur

in part to encourage experimentatio
I've noticed since I've gotten into this again that there is a lot of
closed-source thinking
in the ham world. A lot of devices with microcontrollers released as
binary only, for example.
Not very good if you want to build something the guy no longer makes
available.

I took an analog VHF/UHF radio and
KISS. Keep It Single Sideband. Not many can do AM and even fewer have
linear amps for that. Ditto for HF digital.
And the anoying thing about nets is the ionisphere can't tell time.
That said, it is much easier to do coast to coast now with WebSDR. Go to
websdr.org and choose a receiving site

Ben,
I'm on the west coast, California, and have antenna's for 40 and 80.
There are several nets on the west coast but none that talk classic computers.
Maybe we need one?

What kind of nets are you looking for?
I am an emergency communications volunteer with Kitsap County so I am
aware of all sorts of emergency response related nets, but I only have
equipment for the local nets.
Have you looked at the ARRL Net database?
