My station is up on the 15m frequency as of 10:00 EST 1/18, if anyone anywhere wants to test prior to the official net opening at 20:00 EST tonight.  My station should automatically switch to the 80M frequency at 20:00.  I am running my station at 50 watts for the net, because 100 watts of Winlink heats the PA up in the Flex.  Feel free to share the net announcement as well.
