		<description><![CDATA[Dave Clingerman W6OAL &#38; Wayne Heinen NØPOH I&#8217;d like to wish a very Happy New Year to all our net members and hope that we can add many more to our roster in the New Year. Our net reports indicate we have been averaging 20+ check-ins a Monday evening session over the past year with many a newcomer joining us. The cold and snow of the Winter months, as it usually does, will improve our propagation (or reduce our noise) so that with modest equipment it is possible to copy the DX on our Monday evening net (144.220 at 8 PM Mountain Time). The DX N, E, S &#38; W has been K7TNT – Gillett, WY (DN74), NØLL – Smith Center, KS (EM09), WDØBQM – Mitchell, NE and WAØSIK – Jefferson, CO (DM79). Not too much from the south of us except Ed N5JEH in Albuquerque on occasion. If you have comments on how the net might be made better or how we can increase participation please submit your ideas on-the-air or in writing to your net control stations or to me (w6oal@aol.com). Something that was recently brought up by Dave – WØEDW/KØMLM was the possibility of, after the Monday [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[words and pictures Wayne N0POH On May 19th beacon consortium member Don Nelson N0YE noted that the KA0CDN/B 50.065 beacon was not audible at his place.  Both Dave W6OAL and I concurred.  Karen KA0CDN checked it out and let us know that whatever had gone wrong produced the unmistakable smell of charred electrical components. Due to a variety of factors including personal schedules and the unbelievably hot weather a repair trip was not possible until July 11th, the temperatures were predicted to be in the mid 80’s and would accommodate Dave and I working amidst the Day Lilies that surround the towers at “The Cat Lady’s Garden”.  Upon our arrival Tuesday Morning Dave describes what we found  “…Strange set of circumstances; Removing the twist lock AC plug from the receptacle reveled there had been considerable heat as the &#8216;line&#8217; (black lead) pin was burned up and hanging in the plug. Upon closer inspection we noticed the twist lock receptacle had fairly well melted.  When we opened the &#8216;box&#8217; there was a bit of an acrid odor and considerable charring of the &#8216;line lead&#8217;. No fuses had blown. What we can surmise is that due to an AC wire loop that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dave Clingerman W6OAL           Starting off with a big Happy New Year to all of you net members and would-be net members. Remember you are a net member by virtue of the fact that you live in the Rocky Mountain Region and have checked into the Monday night 2M net at least once (144.220 USB, 8 PM local, 52 weeks a year), not to exclude our five surrounding states that have checked in. We certainly appreciate and welcome the DX check-ins as propagation allows. Our roster now indicates a compliment of greater than 350 members. Please be advised we are horizontally polarized and changing from your quarter wavelength FM stinger to, at least, a 3 element yagi in the horizontal plane is equitable to the difference between night and day (not to mention that you will drop about 10 dB of noise). The net is a great place to meet, converse and exchange ideas with like-minded VHF operators. There have been some changes in our services over the past year, namely our beacon(s) location. The Beacon Consortium of the RMVHF+ Group supports 6 VHF/UHF radio beacons. Five of these are in DM79bh in Como, CO. These are in the guest [...]]]></description>
