Richard,

No problem for me.  But just being the fill in guy for Jim, I was a bit 
confused as to what was going on and what to do  about it.    Hearing 
stations from the UK talking to stations on the west coast over some of 
our stuff  had me scratching my head.   When another KK6 came up and 
asked if we knew we  were running a net on a world wide repeater system, 
  I was really out of my league as to what to do.

After Jim disconnected all and some of us reconnected, he said that 
the world wide thing could have happened any number of ways, even just a 
typo on someone's part.  Anyway, no harm, no foul, and I guess it's all 
just part of the game.

73, Steve KW3A
