Panhandle ARC Nets – VHF
- Panhandle Amateur Information Net — “PAIN”
Please join the group every Sunday evening at 8pm. All area radio amateurs are invited to check-in to the PAIN net, either “for the count” or for a report of how your week went! It is the place to exchange social, technical equipment available for sale or trade and any other information or comments on your mind. We meet on the 146.940 W5WX “north” repeater.

Any and every licensed amateur radio operator is welcome to take a morning break, grab a favorite beverage and check-in to W5WX “Morning Two Meter” on 146.940 weekdays — 10:00 am until 11:00 am. Join the fun and volunteer for a morning Net Control spot – call Ed K5KBV at (806) 683-5603 – we have one open morning spot.
Current Net Control Schedule:

Volunteers are taken at any time for net control slots – contact Ed K5KBV at (806) 683-5603 to get set up. We have had a lot of interest and participation — the net is a great way to share and gain experience in operating protocols and to get to know our area “hams.”
Morning 2M Net Control Info: Use this PARC Morning 2 Meter Net Sample Preamble or adapt to your own “style”–there are many, many examples out there on the internet! Ed K5KBV is the primary net control for this net and recommends (but does not require) NetLogger.
