New GERATOL Season to launch 10/1/24 at 0100Z

With the summer of 2024 behind us, it’s that time of year. Cooler weather, improving conditions, and the start of the 2024/2025 GERATOL Net season on 10/1/24 at 0100Z or 9PM Eastern Time on 9/30/24

Just a reminder, the net starts at 0100Z, on 3.668 Mhz +/- QRM

We look forward to hearing a variety of regulars and hopefully some new folks, who may be interested in joining us this season. ALL Amateur Extra Class operators are welcome and encouraged to join us any and all evenings.

WELCOME ABOARD !

We would like to welcome the following operators to the GERATOL Website. Thanks for taking the time to register on our website, and we hope to work you all on the net this coming season.

AC1SM – Brian from the state of Maine. Brian helps keep Amateur radio alive and well, as a Volunteer Examiner for both W5YI and ARRL.

AD0N – Donn from the state of MN. Donn is only a short 1.2 miles from the Canadian border.

AE9P – Paul from IN. Paul is a Navy Vet, so for those working for the Veteran Salute Award, keep that in mind this season.

KU4M – Mark hails from the state of MD by way of Israel. His home call is 4X1KS

AC1BS – Milton from the state of Maine, spends some of his time as a mailboat skipper off the coast of Maine

We now have over 330 registered members on the GERATOL Website. Thanks to all of you for registering, and feel free to send me any questions about the Website.

GERATOL NET CALL AREA CHALLENGE REMINDER

For those not familiar with our latest Certificate, feel free to check out the requirements on the Website. The certificate is open to ALL operators, and no GERATOL Number is needed to work toward this handsome certificate. To date, no one has completed the requirements, but it’s only been available for a few months last season, so good hunting to all, and let’s see who is the first to apply for this one.
