AF0SS Nets
- Probably looking to start up a VHF/Digital and HF net for AF0SS. We are looking for membership and applying for ARRL affiliation before Huntsville. If you want to join, please just e-mail info@lhspodcast.info and say you want to join. No cost. No obligation. Please let us know if you are an ARRL member as well. VHF/Digital will be accessible via DMR, YSF, FM (locally), M17, Allstar and Echolink. Once I am in possession of an AMBE transcoder, D-Star will also be included.

Comment on Episode #545 from Tom, N4HAI
- Hoping y'all talk about FD - it's coming up QUICK! I'm putting my station together - PS, K3, cheapo laptop. We're having a dry run this week at the park to make sure networking, etc., all work. Using N3FJP again this year - good stuff. And it's simple, Windows, etc., for the newbies.

E-mail from Tim, KD0UUU, on Episode #545
- Just wanted to say, I discovered your podcast this year and I am hooked. Love it! My thoughts on fish, color should never be "off" salmon should have olive green back & top of head, flesh should be salmon orange - tan or brownish is run the other way fast! And if it smells like the carp kill in the spring run off---run! I am pretty sure I have a card from NE4RD also. Thanks Kindly, Tim Jorgenson, KD0UUU.

E-mail from David on Episode #518 (Weekender CXVIII)
- When I studied "Argumentation and Debate" rule one was "If you can't back it up, don't say it". The consensus of your topic "Worst thing about ham radio" was "Old, White Guys". Here's a challenge for you: Pick the computer language of your choice and set up the print string: "We should promote the inclusion of all groups in Amateur Radio EXCEPT <age>, <race>, <sex>. The one thing I hate is to go to a ham event and see too many of those people there."Now make lists for age, race, and sex, pulling variables from any Government form. Cycle through the string to create all possible strings from that string and those variables. Now, read ALL of those strings on your show. Well, all of those strings, except the "Old, White, Guys" one, as you have already done that. Would you feel comfortable slighting any one of those other strings publicly? No? But, as a group "Old, White, Guys" is fair game? Ok, so back that up. Yes, most Hams fall into that group, So, if any other group, age, race, or sex, that ever becomes more successful than it's census percentage would suggest should then become fair game for exclusion and derision as well? At least the next time I am asked to accept the commitment of being a board member of a club or volunteer for any job involving amateur radio I should just reply "No, let the <age><race><sex> do it."
