This morning I had the rare opportunity to check into the World Wide Friendship Net on the Great Lakes Reflector 9611. My friend K5MES, Harold in Fort Smith, Arkansas has been inviting me to this net for quite a while but it seems that I am never able to check in. This net comes on seven days a week at 9:00 AM local time. If you would like to check in, by all means do. If you are the first one on the 145.25 MHz frequency, just give your call sign FIRST and then dial 9611 and you will be connected. As most of you know, I sold my house in July and am having another one built so I am out of a full blown ham rig at present. I do have a handie talkie (HT) but the rest of my gear is in storage.
We suspect that we will be moved into our new place around October or November of this year. At that time, I will be back on the air fully again. I hope that you will take the opportunity to check into this net if you have time. If you ever need to ask a question, then just send an email to members at delcityarc dot org. If you want me directly, you can email me at paul dot mccord at gmail dot com.
If you would like the ability to post on this blog, just let me know and I will give you access.
Thanks,
Paul, K5GLH
Hi, great to listen to on my scanner so i acquired a ham mobile set in the motion of setting up, looking forward to speaking to you all in the U.S. pretty soon.

Thank you Nick. We’ll hope to hear you on the air once you get your license. I am curious what frequency you were listening to the net. I will try to make sure we connect more often.
Paul, K5GLH
