Weekly Event
Hampton’s Public-service Team’s NET is every Monday evening at 7:15 PM local. 145.490 MHz, DUP-, PL100.
Stay tuned immediately following the HPT Net for TECH TOPIC TIME. This is an “On the Air Elmer” event, sponsored by SPARK and led by Addison, AA4AV. Addison takes your ham-related questions and does his best to provide you an answer, and some great conversation on the topic. There is no telling where a question will lead. Also, Ed, WD0FYV, accompanies Addison as the Digital guru, taking all questions about digital operations.
