Hello John,  The only repeater that I use is the Cactus Intertie box on
White Tanks.  I was president of the affiliate for 11 years, but I had to
give it up due to my very poor health.  I could get on your nets, depending
how I am feeling at the time.  I spend a lot of time in the hospital too.
It is pretty rough.

Hey Allan, what 440 machine do you hang out on?  Your proximity to HRO is
deffinatly dangerous!  GRIN!  I don't get out there too often from out
here in the far east valley, Apache Junction!  Hope to work you
somewhare, sometime!  I run the Superstition Amateur Radio Clup net on
Wednesday evening at 8:00 pm local time on 147.12/449.60 with a 162.2 pl
on 2 meters and 100 Hz on 440.  I also run a 6 meter sideband net at
7:00, on 50.140, but I am only running a home brew groundplane at about
15 feet, so you probably wouldn't copy from their, with cross
polarization loss and the like!
