NET REVIEW… small group on board for the net.  Checking in were youth ops:  KI5EWP, KJ5KGE, KJ7AGQ, KN6ULC.  Also on net  were N5GNR, VU2MDA, KC3CDU, K3TEL i/o, KE2AVB i/o
Looking for more connections Nov. 3-7 .   
 
CHAT SESSIONS… 
Monday:  Slow day with only 4 connections, KE2EVX, KJ7AGQ, KR4FLM, KC3DCU.
Tuesday: Another slow evening with only 2 youth ops and total of 6 check ins.  We are missing some of our regular youth ops.  However schoolwork, and other personal and family committements are of higher priority, so these sessions can be expected.  But if you haven’t checked in a while, try and find a minute or two to do so.  Your support is always appreciated and helps to show the strength of ham radio youth.
 
KANDY NET… 
I have net control on Sunday Nov. 2 for our local 2 meter net on W8PIF-R 481872  Stop by if you have time and check in.
