It’s on! C’mon out!
We’ll open up around 6:30. Bring some snacks and spare change, we’ll put it all together and order a pizza (if y’all want to).
Check into the PCARS net from the clubsite, check in from your home station. If you’re out of town for the long weekend, check in via Echolink!
Lots of you are doing really good on the 20 for 20 Net Challenge – don’t drop the ball now – hang in there and get it done!

Greetings de Computerless W8PT.
Due to technical difficulties, I was not able to attend the monthly meeting. So please accept this as my monthly report.
Our next SIG will be on Aug 26th at 7PM at our HQ. Prior to that we will be putting K8BF on the air for the Ohio QSO Party on Aug. 23-24. This contest starts at noon on the 23rd, so it would be best to be present by 11AM so we can review the rules.
Don’t forget that this is our open house and BBQ.
Other things going on:
NA QSOP SSB AUG 16-17. Yes…this weekend.
US Island QSOP. Aug 30-31
Colorado QSOP. Aug 30-31
Kansas QSOP Aug 30-31

The next PCARS Flex Net will be held on Wednesday August 13th at 8:00 PM. This month’s net will be a Digital-Only net using the MT63 2000L mode, on 6 meters. Tune your transceiver’s dial frequency to 50.350 MHz USB and center the MT63 cursors at 1,500 Hz on the waterfall. Remember the mode is 2000L not 2000S. Technician class licensee holders have full privileges on 6 meters and I’d love to see more of our Technicians on this net.
As this is a digital-only net, we will be using prosigns and Q signals to streamline net operations. A review of the use of prosigns and Q signals named ” Flex-Net-Digital-Operations.pdf” can be found on the PCARS groups.io site, here: https://groups.io/g/PCARS/files/Flex-Net-Digital-Operations.pdf
