Entertaining Idea of NET’s on 302
So it has been mentioned several times, about getting a NET of some sort on the 302. My question is what subjects might we be looking to entertain? Who is willing to step up to the plate and run one? I would love to see some folks take this ball of wax and roll with it. I think if we could do something similar to the Digicomm Cafe say maybe twice a month, it might be a nice start. I would like to keep it Hamshack Hotline oriented weather it be Emcomm, WX/Skywarn, FAX, and or repeater linking. Other subjects can be brought up, and before the Ops team for approval. 73 Ken KA1EZH
Website tweaks
OK so I have gone to website and think I have made things more accessible? When you go to documents and put your cursor over highlighted field it will go to a page with multiple sections of information. To create an account to Help desk just go upper right hand corner where it says “create account”. I am trying to be responsive to your wants, needs, and criticisms. Please let me know if these changes were what you were looking for, and if they have improved your ability to navigate our page. 73 Ken KA1EZH
Reacquaint with Hamshack Hotline Covenant Please
All please reacquaint yourselves with the Hamshack Hotline Covenant. You can find it with a link on our Hamshackhotline.com site, and at the help desk knowledge base. We have updated it so it better represents our service, and clarifies past ambiguities.
Thank you to W4JMF Jason Ford

Important Note
Growth Reminder
We are growing in leaps and bounds here on the Hamshack Hotline, both our core and experimental side. I would like to take this time to remind folks that when using HHC (core) you need to remember to read all of the FAQ’s and Covenant. On the experimental (HHX)side it’s expected you have a reasonable knowledge of your phone and or PBX system. With that being said it should go without saying the easiest and less hassle system is our Core side. Our experimental is for those with greater sense of curiosity and technical knowledge. Again WE ARE NOT a utility, we all have jobs and family, we are not paid and the services are free.
Observation about Hams
Just a thought I might put out there, how amazing it is how many hams use alternative means for communications. Most have fuller ham-shacks that are bigger with even more clutter than mine. I have had the pleasure of speaking with fellow hams all over the world, especially in the Digicomm cafe. As they are promoting Hamshack Hotline, I would like to return the favor in suggesting checking their VOIP system out. It’s a win win we meet others with the same love for the hobby and things that surround it. And both services grow with additional connections, and more knowledge can be gained by all.
