QST, QST, QST. This is a message addressed to all amateur radio operators. The World Wide Friendship Net is beginning now, September 28, 2025, 1400 UTC. It goes for about an hour, starting at 7 a.m. for those of us on Pacific time. We're on the Michigan Conference on Ecolink as well as IRLP on nodes 9617 and 96170. For more information about the net, please check out our webpage at World Wide Friendship Net dot org. We also have a Facebook group. Search there for World Wide Friendship Net and you do need a Facebook account to join the group. This net is open to all amateur radio operators. It is a directed net and I'm your net control for today. My name is Gina. My call is KD7GEC and I'm located in Portland, Oregon. Since this net is connected through several links with Ecolink and IRLP, please allow additional time between transmissions for latency and for all the repeaters to reset their timers. World Wide Friendship Net is a popular net so prolonged check-ins that go on over four minutes may be muted to allow for others that have checked in to have their time. Again, my name is Gina and my call is KD7GEC. I do have a question of the day. Today's question is what are you looking forward to this fall? Yesterday I spent time getting all the cobwebs and spiders and all that off the back porch and around the garage door so definitely fall. So what are you looking forward to this fall? When you check in, please speak your call sign slowly and in semantics. And the first round I'm taking mobile or short time stations. And just mobile or short time stations, please come now with your call signs for check-in.
