Until further notice Beginning MAY 8 HBSN SUMMER OPERATING FREQUENCY 7114 kHz Folks: Given that the days are getting longer, and that 80 meters is becoming increasingly difficult, I suggest that we move HBSN to 40 meters starting next week. We will utilize 7114 khz as in the past. Please prepare a QNC for each of your days so everyone will know of the change, to take effect next Monday, the 8th of May. 73 and thank you. P.S. to KT2D: Bob: I realize that in the past you have indicated that the move to 40 creates issues for you, but please bear with us and at least give it a try on the 12th. |

TRAFFIC CALL & THE MEMORIAL NETS Known formerly as "Morning Watch", the first bulletin was published in 1956. It is the newsletter of both Hit and Bounce Net (HBN) and the slow speed net, Hit and Bounce Slow Net (HBSN).HBN was founded in 1930, and still going strong. HBSN was born in 1973. They are wide-area independent nets, with approximately one hundred members, known as the "Royal Order of Arfers" (ROOA). Our password is "Arf", and once you have established yourself as a regular check-in and have been issued a certificate, you are then a "certified traffic hound", and have the privilege of "arfing" around the "kennel".
If you are tired of the "norm" (RST, name, QTH, etc.), come visit one or both nets; give traffic handling a try... if you want to learn, you can begin with the slow speed net, HBSN, however, you're also welcome to QNI HBN. We have some super traffic handlers. As of December 1, 2006, HBSN will meet on 3590 kHz, subject to change if needed.
HBN covers about half of the U.S., from the midwest to the eastern coast, and parts of Canada. And one Oregon station, K7IFG. If you are already a traffic handler and have traffic to move, try HBN or HBSN, or both. You will find very friendly people here, any of whom will be glad to help and answer any questions. (We bark a lot, but we don't bite).
