The handiham nets are on Echolink and IRLP. For Echolink, their conference 
server is 4 9 4 4 9 2. If you want to connect via IRLP, the node number is 9 
0 0 8. To myknowledge, there aren't any handiham nets on hf. Matt, 
KA0PQWwould be able to answer that question. 73. Doug, N6NFF

Well I had my first QSO this morning on the HandiHam Net. Now for the =
newbie
question. How do you log the QSO. Was on the net from 9 until 10, but =
only
talked with one person for about a minute or so. Have his call written =
down
here somewhere. Thanks for the help.

Oh, an observation. Echolink does not, lay, nicely with NVDA. Had to use =
a
Jaws demo of all things to get it to work correctly.

Still very new and full of questions, but to actually carry on a QSO all =
bee
it a short one for the first time was a big thrill. Come to think of it =
40
years ago, my first Novice CW contact was a big deal, too.
