I was an active traffic handler in the 1980s on the 2 meter NTS net. I'd
write down all the messages using my good old brailler.
I also was a trafic handler and an NCS on the Golden Bear net, but there
wasn't much traffic there except at Christmas time.
Although I checked into the daytime RN6 nets, I never checked into the
evening RN6 because I'm not that hep on CW, (grin).
I'm not active anymore because the 2 meter net is on a repeater I can't
reach and the Golden Bear Net doesn't have anything going on at all.
I'm in Army MARS, but most of the traffic is done through pactor and I don't
have that capability.
I'd love to get involved in traffic handling today. Sometimes I check into
the local ARES net. Whenever there is traffic, I take it down using my
BrailleNote. It's nice, quiet and fast! I've also acted as a net control
and I used my BrailleNote to take down the check-ins.
