Hi Mike,

I surely remember that group.   Their alternative net control was a guy 
named Gene Mezger, KE2LO from Hamburg New York--now a silent key.  In 
person, he was a mild mannered guy--the kind of guy you wouldn't mind 
having coffee with--as I did on occasion when he was a board member of 
the South Towns Amateur Radio Society of Hamburg New York.  You wouldn't 
think he would believe the stuff he believed and talk the way he did on 
3950 80 Meters.

I remember one guy who used to jam that net.  He went by the acronym 
'The Nazi Pig Farmer.'  His call (as I recall) was NA0T.  That call has 
been reissued, so it's not listed to the same guy now.  I think he was 
one of Riley Hollingworth's victims in the late 90's.  He used to live 
in a town in Illinois--Divernia (spelling) I believe. He used to run 
serious power and jam the Liberty net--claiming that they were 'Kosher 
Conservatives' (a term he got from cripto Nazi talk show host Tom 
Valentine--who used to refer to Limbaugh as such--indicating his anti 
Semitic claim that such were tools of 'the Jews') and play music and 
scream epithets at the Liberty Net folks.

That's what I recall of the 3950 group.
