He all, just a reminder to our GERATOL Net members, that our Net still starts at 0100Z, but now with Daylight Savings time in place, we launch the net at 8:00PM Eastern, vs the 9PM we had in October.

For those looking to check in, we are still at 3.668 Mhz and are there each evening. We have a few ops who are on the search for just a handful of states to wrap up their BASIC award requirements, so if you have not checked in for a while, please stop by to say hi, and perhaps fill a void for some of the ops looking for a few states and/or a few call sign formats, to finish up the CALL AREA CHALLENGE certificate. (See below)

SILENT KEYS:

With sadness, we have been notified of the following GERATOLers who are now Silent Keys:

Henry – W5VD – GERATOL # 316 Henry was a TX Ham Operator

Don – N8DE – GERATOL # 552

John – NA2R – GERATOL # 855 from NJ

Perry – K9NZ – GERATOL # 1355 from IN

Tony – N3TB – GERATOL # 2197 from PA

RIP to all, and condolences to their families.

Our thanks to Barry, K2MF for his research and updates on the status of our fellow GERATOL members.

DE on the net this Wednesday Evening 11/6

We hope to have a REMOTE station from DE on this coming Wednesday evening. Bob, AI4IL has recovered from Hurricane Helene, and will be our NCS once again that evening. Welcome back Bob!

So stop by to work DE if you need it, and to welcome Bob back on to the GERATOL Net as our regular Wednesday night NCS
