Introduction
Procedure
- let other operators know that you are there by saying your call sign
- say your call sign and "monitoring"
- phone a friend
- say your friend's call sign and then your call sign
- stick around after the Nine O'Clock Net
Tips
- don't call "CQ" in to a repeater as you would on a calling frequency
- no CB lingo -- "breaker, breaker" stuff
