The following from our NCS (Net Control Station) for tonight.
I have prepared the attached PowerPoint presentation for this evening’s net discussion. I will be on 147.200 at 1930 for our informal rag chew net. At 2000 I will go through the script and log all the net participants in.
Following roll call I will go over the PowerPoint presentation. Please bring up the attached Power Point presentation on your screen so that you will be able to follow the discussion. There will be time for questions and discussion. Remember the only stupid question is the one that did not get asked. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. No body is going to poke fun at you.
Looking forward to hearing you all on the repeater at 1930.
