Yep, I'm Brian, KE7KZH. This is the 9 o'clock net on the PSRG repeater in Seattle, Washington. As promised, I'm going to go ahead and read a few quick announcements here. And I do pull these announcements over from the Facebook group that we have. It's called the PSRG discussion group. And Jack, KI7RMU, keeps a pinned topic there under the featured section. The topic is called events to consider. I will read some highlights from that. So the first thing here, of course, that's on this list is the Repeater Roundabout which has been going on yesterday and today. Just got two and a half hours left of that to make a few more contacts there. So again, more information at repeaterroundabout.com. And again, the whole idea of this is to light up those repeaters that you normally wouldn't. And it's a great way to get started with ham radio contests for folks who are primarily repeater users. So this is going on in Washington and Idaho on select repeaters. So it's just a good chance for VHF and UHF users to have some fun contesting, talk on repeaters you wouldn't normally, and make some new contacts there. So I hope you all are having fun, and I hope I get some reports of how many contacts people have made this weekend there. All right, so next thing we have here, a couple of recurring events on Saturdays. The Radio Club of Tacoma has their open house 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. And this will actually, it's on the list here for Saturday November 29th, so Thanksgiving weekend, so it sounds like that's still on. And of course, every Saturday evening is the SimplexNet. This happens 8 p.m. local time here in Pacific time. And the frequency is 146.56. The SimplexNet is a great chance to see who you can talk to without a repeater in between. All right, the next PSRG board meeting is going to be on Saturday, December 13, 1.30 p.m. on Zoom.
