I thought the youth forum could use some livening up so here we go. I have seen roll calls like this on other forums so I figured I'd give it a go here on QRZ. Any youth on QRZ.com please post (if you wish) your Name, Callsign, Age, License class, and favorite ham radio activity. I'll go first.... NAME: Mason CALL: KM4SII AGE: 13 LICENSE CLASS: General (studying for my extra) FAVORITE HAM ACTIVITY: DXing and Contesting If you wish, you can add additional Info. 73 de KM4SII - Mason
Also, I should add, If you are the parent of a youth operator you can post for them. 73 de KM4SII - Mason
Also, I completely understand if you do not feel comfortable posting this information on the web, especially with some of the people in today's world. I just don't want to cause any alarm, especially after reading the online safety for kids thread.
Hi Mason! NAME: Bryant CALL SIGN: KG5HVO AGE:12 LICENSE CLASS: General (Studying when I can for the Extra) FAVORITE HAM ACTIVITIES: Contesting, DXing, and home brewing antennas I just wanted to let you know that it was fun working you on 40m last Sunday. I wish we could have had a longer QSO but don't have a good 40m antenna... I was using a 20m dipole tuned to 40m. Have in the hobby! 73 and good DX- Bryant KG5HVO
Thanks for the reply Bryant.... I'm glad we could make contact. I saw you spotted on 20m but could not hear you. Hopefully we can have a longer QSO under better band conditions! 73 de KM4SII - Mason
Yes I do.... what time/day/node? Also, do you check into the YACHT Echolink youth net.... I can't remember if I have heard you check in or not.
The youth net that I try to check in to is Thursdays at 00:00 UTC on W5DDL-R (370324). No, I have not checked in to the YACHT net, please pass along the info.
Just to let you know,Mason, I was the week station calling you this evening on 40m. Feel free to shoot me QSL card for our last contact, I will shoot you in return.
It is on the W8PIF-R at 7 PM CST on Saturdays. There is usually 10 to 20 youth that check in. Thanks for trying again on 40m tonight... sorry I could not hear you any better. 73 de KM4SII
