Fwd: Six Meter SSB Net Tuesday
by n6kth n6kth.com 28 Aug '24

28 Aug '24

Hi folks! I thought I would try my hand at promoting two of our local nets again, so: Please join us on Tuesday evening for the monthly six meter SSB net starting at 20:00 hours local of on 50.125 MHz SSB and then migrating up to 50.145 MHz for the rest of the net. Give your radio a little exercise on six meters and join us! As a reminder, the weekly two meter SSB net happens ever Wednesday starting at 8:00 PM on 144.210 MHz. These nets have been running continuously for around 15 years, so come join the conversations!

This is the battery I had at the SBARC picnic - on sale at Amazon

This is the 100A LiFePO4 from Redodo. I've had this in my Amazon shopping cart and I see that today's price is very good. $269 - $40 = $229 with free shipping. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B094NN5KWY I ended up buying another pair at an even better price. $455 - 10% = $410 or $205 each (but you have to buy a pair) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2QP1T5T Note that these physically are the same size as a lead acid AGM 100AH battery so it fits into battery trays that used to hold AGMs. 100AH 12V LiFePO4's are also being sold as 'minis' where the case is smaller, but many of those are using pouch vs prismatic cells. I don't have an opinion on one being better than the other (pouch vs prismatic), just letting you all know. Dave AI6VX
