I now will open the net to regular check-ins. Please come now…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nBREAK to allow traffic<\/p>\n– Relax, there are going to be callers, potentially many, and over each other.
– Just grab what you can out of the noise. Don’t be afraid, ask them to repeat their call-sign if you only caught part of it.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\nThis is where you will be repeating the call for check-ins as you work through the list of radio operators. Towards the end of the net when things settle down, make a few calls similar to those below.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
This will be the second last call for check-ins to the Kings County Amateur Radio Club VHF net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
