Updated WICEN NSW 40m Monthly HF Net

Please note: The HF net time has been moved from 1830 Hrs to 1730.

• Monthly - 3rd Sunday of each month at 1730 NSW Local Time
• Frequency - 7110 kHz LSB +/- QRM / other traffic
• Net Control - VK2WIZ

The format of the net is as follows:

• Check In after commencement by Net Control
• Regional stations first - outside the greater Sydney area.
• Then greater Sydney stations.
• Net Control will acknowledge callsigns.
• Once Check In is complete, Net Control will call in each station to report signals of all stations heard.
• Individual stations should listen for stations that check in but not heard by Net Control, and report this to Net Control, it may be viable to appoint a back up Net Control or Relay.

It will be great to see lots of stations participate.
 
Hope to hear you on air.

Vice President & Media Manager
