A good net this morning with 19 stations seen - not everyone was transmitting, but I'll count them anyway. Of note was a first check in from well known local ham Peter VK3YE who was using an FT817 and has been experimenting with very low power transmissions - 30mW and lower!

Stations seen included: VK3CKY, VK3GTP, VK3NAR, VK3SRC (away), VK3YE, VK5AG, VK5KFG, VK5KVA, VK5LN, VK2TTL, VK3PCC, VK2DWG, VK5AV, VK2BLQ, VK3BAL, VK5LA, VK6POP, VK5KVG and me, VK3TPM.

Her's a clip of VK3YE: https://youtu.be/6fSVrD1nweo

Hi all

I didnt hear a squeak today. Not unexpected. It's a bit early in the day for 40 metres x 3000 Kms.

With support of Kevin VK6KR I'm trying a VK6 FreeDV net on Tuesdays at 0800 UTC (4pm Perth Time).
We'll use 7.045 MHz unless it's already busy.

cheers
Bob VK6POP

It was great to have Peter VK3YE joining in - of course he was experimenting with QRP!
